Leather cleaning…….

What product do you use to clean and condition the leather in your car?

Gliptone leather cleaner, a fingernail brush and a little water.

Lather up and dry with a towel.

LeatherMaster (Soft Cleaner, Protection Cream)
water-based, maintains the matte finish, but no “new leather scent” that I have noticed.

Mild soap and warm water. Leather is as new 12 years later.

for conditioning i use saddle soap. very little, if any, water. my black leather interior doesn't show much in the way of dirt. the stuff's not as easy to find as it used to be....i buy mine at TSC (Tractor Supply Company).

Modern leather is sealed. You can't "condition" it.

i beg to differ. it disappears into the leather in no time IME. i suspect "sealed" is a marketing term to give the buyer a sense that it is impervious to aging and drying out. which i've found to be far from the truth. YMMV.

I use 3M leather cleaner and then wipe it off with damp towel to ensure no chemical residue. Griot's leather care to treat it. It's what my local AM dealer uses.
