Re: Leather Conditioning

it seems like the most recommended product is that Areospace 303 stuff. but nobody has mentioned anything about using Saddle Soap, which the manual recommends.
(yes I've actually read thru it)

Re: Leather Conditioning

dunno about 303... most people seem to recommend Lexol or Zaino
I guess any of those 3 products will work just fine.

Re: Leather Conditioning

I was debating what to put on my leather seats as well... I was so afraid of putting something on them that would take away the "new" look and smell... I read all the forums and heard everyone recommending something different... I ended up going with the LEXOL on the seats....I use the cleaner first them the conditioner and then condition them once a month as well to keep them looking like they are brand new. As for the doors, dashboard, and steering wheel I use the 303 Aerospace Protectant... it is a cleaning product that also provides UV protection... it doesnt look too shiney or oily (which I hate) and it makes the dash and interior of the door look excellent...Dust is no longer a problem either since is wipes off soo easy (I keep one of the star mops clothes aqua clothes in my glove box for quick dusting and window touch ups)... as for the smell of the car after all the seats are conditioned and the dash is cleaned it smells good! It doesnt take away from the "new car smell" at all... the leather actually gets a real lush smell to it... I recommend the Lexol with the 303 Aerospace for the dash... that's my $0.02... I am sure there are many other opinions out there...
