I recommend getting products from Griot's garage. They have a wesite. Great products overall and specifically a nice leather treatment product. I have also used the Zymol leather cleaner prodcut for cleaning tough stains, but still like to finish off with the Griot's.

I use the armor all gel. It works pretty well, I'm not sure if I used too much, but my seats are a little slippery for 30min-1hr.

Go with Lexol cleaner and conditioner. The cleaner is ph balanced for leather - very important for the longevity - unless you like cracked leather...The conditioner has just the right amount of conditioner and it gets nicely absorbed into the leather. It does not have all the "additives" that make it shiny or slippery.Just follow the directions on the container - very easy.There may be others that are as good but none are better than Lexol imho - and they charge way too much.Yes, Griot's sells some good stuff - at a steep premium!!!

Save your money and go buy some Lexol at a tack shop (leather care for saddles etc) or even ACE Hardware!hth

I too use McGuires with no complaints, it smells all nice and pretty when I sit down...

It does initially have a shine, but no oily residue, the conditioners absorb in a day or two
