Judy I meant that they felt less 'sharp' (if that makes sense) when put through a foaming despenser they feel even better, when you apply MS you litterally spray or wipe it on. I don't think I'm making much sense and I haven't even had a drink!

I just think the thicker texture feels less aggressive.

In what way are they 'clearly more effective'?  Maybe the abrasion has removed the finish on the leathers you have cleaned which would leave the leather looking much brighter and very clean but will leave the leather unfinished which long term will be very harmful.

Of course we have tried them, we are sent products to try all the time and if we found anything which was so good we would gladly offer it as a solution but as yet microsplitters have proved to be not as effective and possibly in some circumstances damaging.

Shaun thanks for the clarification, they do as the foaming mechanism makes the cleaners very soft.  One other problem with microsplitters if you spray them on is the potential for runs which can be impossible to remedy.

There's always the fact that microsplitters cost pennies and if the suppliers of leather cleaning products were to endorse that m/s were effective then they would lose money.

Maybe i'm being cynical

The nature of our business is to bring the best products and techniques that are available for leather cleaning and repair to the open market and if microsplitters were the best then we would happily sell them.  Our generic training covers many solutions to problems.

We have no knowledge of the leather products you use Glynn and if you want to send us some samples we will happily try them and let you know the results. 

Using soap and water has long been recommended but in recent years many manufacturers have added much more salt to their products to aid the cleaning of dishes/clothes etc and these can damage the finish on leather which is why we recommend the use of specifically tested leather products with good product back up as being the best option.
