I used SkinCare just a few days ago. Gotta say, nice kit. Everything is high quality - the brush, the towels, the scrubber. The products are excellent, as one would expect from CarPro. Generous amount. Happy with the results. OTOH, I don't love the InnerQD. It's its smell. Too intense for me. A personal thing.

Supposed to be Cucumber Mint. It’s more of a subtle scent, and it doesn’t stick around like that of Interior Detailer. What I mean by that is, if I used Interior Detailer on a Saturday, the next Saturday, I could still kind of smell it. This one just blends in to everything in my opinion. It also seems to leave even more of a matte finish than Interior Detailer. I’m not sure it’s meant to be used as a replacement to Interior Detailer though. This product still doesn’t disappoint!

@MikeGDetailing
@MikeGDetailing 6 күн бұрын
It will work on the steering wheel. After you wipe off any excess it will not feel sticky. CarPro has told me that this is safe on all leathers as this is more of a sealant than a conditioner. Another option that I like for leather is the colourlock leather shield which is also a sealant.
