Is my leather conditoner still good ?
I have a bottle of Maguire's Gold Class Leather Cleaner & Conditioner that is at least 5 years old.
Would hate to throw it away if it is still useful, and wondering how long a time it is still up to the job ?
Do the chemicals break down after a few years and not worth using ?

I'd shake it up and check to see how separated it is... then give it the sniff test. If it mixes and smells ok... then I'm sure you could use it. However you could also get a new bottle for like $10.

^ You can do the above, but a safe bet would be to just spend the money and get a new bottle.

I would call Meguiars and ask them what the shelf life is. I believe Griots is 5 years. Or, like what said above, just purchase another bottle.

Thanks gentlemen - will buy a new bottle. My seats are worth it. The leather on the Z is so cheap and gets all those wrinkles, need something to help it.
