Well, I didn't treat it so well with the harsh car washes. I was surprised how a few hours and all these types of products I had never heard of had produced a very noticeable improvement in the color, let alone the surface in general. And the inside is unbelievable...not a speck of dust and the leather feels and looks like the day I got it. Will def be splurging on this several times a year!Every little girl growing up in America wanted those "Ruby Slippers" from the Wizard Of Oz....you, Klumpikat actually got yours! Such a beauty! ^^^^
