LexKid630 Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Is it good to moisturize leather seats? Does it make the leather last longer? Will it prevent/bends creases in the leather? Will it discolor the surface? How often should/can it be added? Any specific brands to suggest? Thanks; trying to keep it in as perfect condition as possible ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah the insurance is a killer...and the taxes! yikes..LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOGWT Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Q:1. Is it good to moisturize leather seats? A leather conditioner we put ‘moisture’ back into the leather in the form of oils Q:2. Does it make the leather last longer? 3. Will it prevent/bends creases in the leather?4. Will it discolor the surface? 2. Yes, 3. Yes and 4. No Q:5. How often should/can it be added? Schedule: Once every 30-60 days, Arizona, Florida and Texas, especially in summer, for northern climates between 90-120 days, use a leather conditioner to restore these natural oils and keep the leather soft and supple. (Criot's Leather Care, Autoglym Leather Care Cream, Zanio Z10 Leather in a Bottle or Zymol Treat leather cleaners are all good maintenance products) Q:6. Any specific brands to suggest? What type of leather does the vehicle have? Different bands are formulated for different types of leathers? JonM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossman Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I use Meguiar's Gold Class Rich Leather Cleaner/Conditioner. I have been happy with the results - especially that the product is absorbed quickly and does not leave a residue or leave the leather seats/armrests feeling oily.

JonM ← All of my cars have the ivory leather that comes on the car...I went to the nearest Auto Zone and they gave me this leather moisturizer. I put in on my rx330 and it seems pretty nice. The leather is so much softer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgriffith Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 I got some of the Griots Leather Care product about 3 weeks ago and put it on our leather seats. The leather scent it left behind is still there and is wonderful! I have also used the Autoglym product and like it as well. It doesn't leave the leather scent, but does leave a nice, clean scent. I used the Meguiar's Gold Class as well and did like it, but didn't feel as if it did as great of a job. The Griots & Autoglym stuff are my two favorites. I have used Lexol before too and it is a great product as well. That is what I keep on my parent's LX. Give the Griots stuff a try....www.griotsgarage.com (I think)....it isn't expensive at all....and they have all other kinds of goodies!!
