What do you use to treat your leather?

Leatherique is awesome. It smells amazing, is all natural and feeds the leather....

Just look at some of the before/after pics ising leatherique. This stuff is awesome. I used to be a non-believer until I saw someone do it locally to their trashed seats.

Leatherique is very good. My best results have been from a product called "Hide Food" which is a Bentley product. It has a close cousin under the Connolly brand, but the actual Hide Food branded product is amazing. It's essentially pure lanolin, so will liquefy or congeal within +/- 5 degrees of room temperature. Doesn't smell sexy but it is amazing. It can be found at Bentley dealers or online. About $18 for a small jar, but it goes a long way.

Auto Magic leather conditioner, non abrasive with a natural new leather smell. I use it on both of my cars with great results.

May I offer a word here, in the home detailing thought a prevalent theme seems to always rise-up, that is if an expensive car manufacture sells, recommends, or uses a product then it's good and will work on my car, this is not necessarily true as the product has to be compatible with the grade of leather the manufacture uses. For instance, if you buy a XYZ car with leather interior and then apply leather conditioner that Bentley uses it won't necessarily give you good results, some leather comes treated (Ford for example) to prevent stains which will prevent anything from penetrating. This is why I went to the dealer and purchase what they actually use (which was Griots Garage) and after speaking with the manager he explained it took years of them testing it and other product to switch away from what they were using(Zymol.) And I know this was factual because I was able to confirm with a mutual friend of the owner.
I'm not saying any one product is better or worse, just mentioning you may not get the results you are/were hoping for.
Just my 2 cents...I'll stick with the Griots Products in and out.

Well, this is based on my own personal experienced, I also have use another product Lexol Leather Conditioner, but I prefer Auto Magic, my detailer uses it. I can't speak about Griots but I will give it a try and let you know.

Wasn't speaking to anyone in particular, just throwing it out there.

Thank you everyone for your input. I've been distracted since my air conditioning compressor self-destructed last week, but it's been replaced and now I am ready to get back to prettying up my leather.
