"Yes Sir", Paul showing respect to his elder. The way is should be. Thanks Paul and thank you Doc for another great learnin' video.
Paul is very polite. Would love to see him on more videos!
Thanks for the leather care information! The biggest learning was the black leather Rejuvenator... Amazing!
Thank you Doc and Paul for sharing information on cleaning and preserving Harley Davidson leather products. I always look forward to see your videos, Doc.
For my road King Custom, I could never find anything from other brands that worked well with my leather covered bags. They either didn't clean well or look right after application. The Harley Leather Conditioner (use clear) just works best for me. Always looks good and gives a good appearance.
Great info as always Doc, Thank You!
Very useful video Doc! I used both H-D paste products on my Triumph saddlebags for years, nothing else comes close to the finish I get! 👍👍 from me!
Thanks Doc.
I just did my 16 year old trunk bag from LeatherPros. Their cleaning/ conditioning products are not available in Australia so I used Saddlesoap (as used by horse rider's on their seats) and conditioned with Dubbin. It came out a treat and I didn't have to pay the Harley tax.
Both leather paste products are available from H-D in Australia. 👍🇦🇺
Good info and a nice job leading the young "Buck" through the product demo : )
Another great topic Doc!! LTMV
I have a CVO Limited and it actually comes with a can of the clear leather conditioner.
Also, use ONLY Harley Davidson water.Your Harley Davidson will thank you.Dont forget to pick up some Harley Davidson paper towels too folks.
Same thoughts 😁😆🤣
Hi Doc Harley If I am riding my Harley Davidson will riding help me with the Corona/DeepState-19 virus blues. When I am feeling down in the dumps nothing lifts me up like a ride on my FLHR followed by a Doc Harley video. God Bless you, May God keep us safe from this DeepState-19 virus.
I’m wondering if I should use this same stuff on my saddlemen seat or if there’s similar products
I have a 2020 fltrk road glide Limited and would like to know what would be best to use on the black radiator reservoir covers on top of the fairing lowers Thanks!
The dark paste, if used on a seat with minor rub marks will it help
Ole Paul is a go getter
Is that brown fx seat for sale
I used Harley Davidson leather products on my old bag but it just made her mad,,,(in Rodney Dangerfield voice) "tough crowd, tough crowd ' great video Doc as always
At this time, it is my understand EPA still rules. Use HD Tuner or have proof the tuner you choose is EPA certified. (which there are very few)....Doc
For leather, LEXOL is the best product available on the market today, bar none
I've tried several kinds and so far nothing comes close to Lexol
I ussd lexol for years loved it. But I found somebody else that blows them right off tbe charts!! Skidmores. Go to www.skidmores.com. You won't regret it.
what to use if the leather (saddle) is very stiff and the black is worn off in places?
Hard/Stiff Leather
1. Always clean first (dawn soap/microfiber or soft wipes).
2. H-D trim/saddlebag cleaner - soak and repeat, wipe off excess.
3. If "2" doesn't help enough, baseball glove oil (designed to soften leather and help it reform/stretch).
4. Harley leather protectant for light colored leather. H-D black leather protectant for Black/Grey leather.
Patch/Delaminated Leather (Black Leather)
1. Clean (soap/rag)
2. H-D trim/sattlebag cleaner
3. H-D Black Leather Protector (or H-D black plastic/inner fairing restorer) (plastic restorer is thicker, may work better for some delaminated leathers)

Thanks
Would saddle soap help to get the flexibility back?
It has areas that have black missing (down to brown leather) needs to be re-dyed.
Thx
Robert
@@robertm.divincenzo7954 Any leather product containing Lanolin will help to bring back flexibility, and saddle soap has it as well. Thinner, more liquid products like glove oil may work better because they soak in more easily. Try leaving the saddlebag and saddle soap out in the sun and it might soak in. Black leather conditioner or black shoe polish may help hide the areas where the leather is flaking.
It would be good if you list the products used.

👀👂 ? How would yall go about bring the color back to the word stich in saddle bags .i have gold stiching and it fade on the right saddle bag. And as always 👍 up for you DOC-HARLEY AT LOW-COUNTY HARLEY DAVINS. ☝
This is very difficult because of possibly fraying the threads. possibly use a Soft toothbrush and baby shampoo. go very slowly with brushing....Doc
That seat had more personality than Paul.
Hey doc i have a question, harley uses a leather seat right, so tell me was that cow bred especially for harley davidson that the leather came from?
Actually, it is HOG skins chemically processed to like like cow leather, because we ride HOGS.
Are there Harley cows?
AV84USA Yes, I’ve seen them out riding in parades in SF.
ok this young man is 18 to20 years old. How in the hell can he be an expert on detailing. no way.
For me there's only one leather cream .Skidmores!!!! Go to www.skidmores.com. You'll never use any other brand again!! I use it on my 72FLH,my Buick's leather seats. And my leather sofa. Their products are the best. You'll see. Give them a try!! Skidmores!!
Just got the skidmore's leather cream. Have a new Corbin seat for my Triumph and debating if I should treat it or take the seat off and bring it inside or both. Garage is going to get cold here. Thanks.
i find HD product work best,
Can I get a Witness?>
I understand that you work at a Harley dealer, but the Harley leather products are not the best.
Gees, give Paul his own mike... can just barely understand his words through your mike..Give the man the respect he deserves, he's the expert and helping you! You show NINE products on the table and the counter top, yet only bring up four in the video? These are the reasons i gave this video a 👎
