Preventative care on leather seats/interior

First post, long time lurker on the board.

Anyway, I recently sold my 06 Cayman S with 70K miles and purchased an 07 997 Turbo with 45K miles. One thing that bothered me about my Cayman S was that the driver seat had cracked leather and slight fade on some interior items.

The interior on my 997 Turbo is almost perfect, except for a slight fade on my A/C control button.

Question is, what cleaning ritual/products do you guys use on the board here?

I use Lexol for my leather, but very little on the dash because I hate the haze.

I have seen a bunch of guys use Sonus cleaner and conditioner. Apparently it is a very good cleaner and conditioner without a "fake" leather smell.

I would use

1Z einszett ****pit on plastics and trim not wrapped in leather.
Leather Master Plus Kit was what I used on my 911 Turbo when I had it.

I am currently using leather master products in my 911 TTS. So far I am very happy with the results. The leather still look new and supple. I did a deep cleaning and conditioning before I put it away for the winter. You would be surprised the junk that comes off what looks like a clean seat!
