0 Dan@Adams Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 We had a prototype version over a year ago with a different smell to it, but it would unfortunately turn to a sort of rotten fruit smell from what I recall.

0 Jayco76 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 The leather / interior cleaner is fragrance free . The leather conditioner IMO works great on leather and Smells fantastic. I just prefer the Finnish and ease of use of the TID on the interior plastic components Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 1Popeye Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I to love the smell of the TID! All the products to to clean the interior work well just the way they are. Love them all. Elvin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Elvin Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 I am a bit disappointed to find out that the L&I Cleaner is fragrance free. I was looking forward to trying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 blcksilv08 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I am a bit disappointed to find out that the L&I Cleaner is fragrance free. I was looking forward to trying that.The cleaner is fragrance free but follow it up with the conditioner and the smell of clean leather in your car is great. You don't need leather to use the conditioner, its great on plastic and vinyl as well. zapdon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Elvin Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 I have heard that mercedes does not recommend using conditioners on the interior vinyl and plastics. Not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 PostalTwo Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I can't imagine the conditioner hurting anything. It's does smell fantastic. I find the cleaner does have a slight scent. It smells fresh . The conditioner smells like leather and is not greasy or shiny. Easily my favorite interior product Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Elvin Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 So I did call my dealer and asked about that and he did say that mercedes does not recommend using protectants. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 galaxy Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Do some more searching on using conditioners on leather. Tons of info out there and tons and tons of recommendations on NOT using conditioners on leather surfaces, mostly new stuff, as they are coated/sealed. Most say conditioners and other products don't actually do anything at all due to this sealing. Procucts just sit on top and provide a sticky surface for abrasives to adhere to. Don't shoot the messenger, just what I have uncovered being paranoid about the leather in my personal new car. Adam's is the only thing that's been inside my new car. Not overpowering at all and zero distraction from the new car smell. I was hesitant to use anything at first, but finally used the detailer when I could no longer stand the half-*** appearance from the dealer. Completely transformed a brand new dash surface, if that was even possible? How do you improve upon brand new, lol?

0 falcaineer Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 We had a prototype version over a year ago with a different smell to it, but it would unfortunately turn to a sort of rotten fruit smell from what I recall. Lots of testing needs to go into each product to make sure it's just right And I would've just blamed it on something the kids left in the car. The LE ID that just came for Christmas shows you're certainly willing to try, and succeed, with new ID scents. And while I like the current original version, if you do ever come out with another limited edition for it in, say, a citrusy or vanilla scent, I think that'd be a hit, too.

0 detailingislife Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 TID is such a great product, at first the smell isn't the greatest. After it dries for some time, it leaves a clean pleasant scent. It's also one of the only products that work on the weird material my interior is made of.

0 Krr21 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 I agree, I really like the scent of TID as well. I would hate to see it changed. It's a pleasant, neutral scent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Rb1274 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 In a weird way i kinda like the wheel cleaner... the scent of deep cleaning.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Hupp2it Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I like the regular one but I bought the Candy Cane TID for all my Vette friends for Christmas. They were a big hit. Now if they could just make a product that smells like chocolate chip cookies! DO IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 PHOKUS Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Original TID is perfect. No changes needed or wanted! For those asking for TID in Leather Conditioner smell, here's a tip: Mix Leather Conditioner with distilled water 60/40. You now have a Leather Conditioner spray solution. Grab a spare bottle and you're set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but there aren't many scents out there that will mask the real scent of the Wheel Cleaner properly and still allow it to work properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
