Question Tanner's Leather Conditioner & Cleaner ??

Tanner's used to be my favorite leather product, but can't find it anymore. Not at Autozone, Pepboys, Advance, or Target. Web search only pulls up one seller on Amazon. Anyone know if these products still exist? Where to buy in a store?

I find Lexol products tedious. I tried this leather product from One Grand but it has an awful gas smell that takes two weeks to air out.

I use this http://www.zainostore.com/Merchant2/...oduct_Count=16 and I love it. In 2 months it has changed my leather from hard and stiff to very supple and soft. And it has leather oil in it, so my car smells brand new inside and it is 4 years old.

Zaino makes some really great products.

After reading a ton of good things about the Zaino leather in a bottle, I tried it. Makes the leather feel great and the best thing about it is the smell. It's got a new leather like smell, but 10 times better. I got addicted to it and found myself constantly applying it. I become so used to the smell, that I practicallly need to shave with the stuff to feed my addiction. The stuff is like crack.

I forgot to mention. Normally it is pretty pricey. But they are doing 20% off right now. I definatly say pick some up.

I also use leatherique. It's pricey, but works great. I'm just stuck on zaino for the smell.

I called Car Care Online to ask them why the One Grand product is so stinky (they said to spray a minimal amount onto a sponge or cloth instead of spraying it directly on the leather -- contrary to the instructions on the bottle).

Asked him about Tanner's (which they don't carry) and how it compares to Lexol, etc. He said Tanner's isn't really an "automotive product", it's more an all-purpose conditioner (but so is Lexol?!?). I guess that's why I can't find it at auto parts stores (or maybe Meguiars bought up all the shelf space).

Thanks for the Zaino suggestion, will give it a try if I happen to order something else from them (currently using wax).
