Hello,
new to the cleaning section, but have always browsed it; very informative!

I was just wondering for leather cleaning, is it safe to use a horse hair brush? I'm sure I could just use a foam applicator as well but I've heard brushes take out dirt more effectively.

Also, is it ok to mix and match leather cleaners and conditioners? I'm sure its been done but is it probably the best just to stick with one brand because they are designed to work together? I was thinking lexol cleaner and Z-10 zaino conditioner.....

Thanks in advance!

 

A horse hair brush is fine for cleaning leather, as long as you're gentle with it. No worries.

As for mixing product lines like that, sure, it's done all the time. You can usually find a product or 2 from each manufacturer that excels in one category, but maybe their sister product doesn't, so you pick out the "good" ones and use them where necessary.
