Wax on leather!? I have horses, so I have saddles, bridles, halters, girths, leadropes - all leather, that require care. I clean them with glycerin soap or Lexol. I oil them with Olive Oil.It works great. I do the same for the leather on my bike.

Just ask someone who "uses" it. You'll find out in a hurry. Ppl who "use" it know what works best in the shortest amount of time. Have to, or would be at it foreverand still not get great results. Hats off, GA

Neverdull on chrome works great, just make sure the bike is dry before you use it, otherwise it is a pain in the ***.
