The Rolls Royce products for this are Meguiars - they have a 3 step
system that works wonders
"1" cleans off old wax and oxidation
"2" is the polish and
"3" is wax
Its VERY expensive - ive also had a lot of success with 3M products - use
the medium
rubbing compund for badly faded areas, hand glaze for lwss faded areas
and finish off with a nice waxing

Bill Hirschs "Miracle leather rejuvenator" makes leather supple again -
then use a Meguiars leather food/polish on top

Armorall basically dries vinyl out over time - dont use it on leather at
all - it also discolours lighter coloured items - whitewalls for example
- but its still ok for a quick rubdown (with the sporting life.........)

Simichrome is expensive, extremely hard work - and the best there is!!
