What are you putting on it to protect it?

Order Leatherique...the cleaner and the conditioner. It's top tier and will help restore your leather. Everything else is of lesser quality and a waste of time IMHO. For the love of god, don't use Lexol.

I've used this the past 30 years....although, I'm sure Lexol and Leatherique is top quality.

I grew up with this stuff in hard working leather areas...(read: saddles)

Kiwi Saddle Soap as directed, then very light coat of Kiwi Mink Oil and top with a favorite shine protection. I use a very light application of the Adam's Polish VRT if I want a sheen to it, but not that crazy super gloss.

Saddle soap is not a good choice for the leather in cars. It removes the dye over time . There are a lot better products out there now, even for saddles. Lexol is simply crap.

really? news to me...had an 88 mclaren mustang for 21 years never removed any dye from those seats. guess it's how one uses it and how often.

On the seats it should be "leather seating surfaces", the boxing and backs are usually matching vinyl.
