Leather conditioner?
I use my seat heater all the time and i think it is drying out the leather and it also looks a little discoloured.
What you be the best thing to put on the seat to bring life back into it? I dont want to put something on there that is terrible and will get all over my clothes and make everything feel oily. thanks

I've used swisvax leather conditioner & cleaner on my lemon leather and it works a treat.
Mike at Care Care products is a great source for cleaning stuff, his web site is http://www.carcareproducts.com.au/ and they have a great online store. |

I found the BMW leather Cream/conditioner which cleans and makes the leather shine dissapear is very good - i was told by BMW to use a saddle soap and brush if i really want it perfect but my car is still too young for that treatment.. :-)
PS: BMW leather Cream/conditioner smells good too. |

QUOTE] +1 Zaino Z9 + Z10 is great stuff. Does not give your leather a horrible fake shine which cheaper ones tend to. I tried it on my sisters 2002 E46 coupe. The leather looked beyond repair but gave it a go nonetheless. All I can say is wow! Restored the leather to new, all the faded parts also came out looking new again. |

I also have used the Zaino Z9/10 in the past but decided to try the Meguiars Gold Class Rich Leather cleaner/conditioner this time round.
Very impressed with the results although my Coral leather is only 16 months old but has seen plenty of daylight as the roof is off most of the time. No greasy residue just back to the original sheen it had on delivery and nice soft glow.. Gave the steering wheel a light clean and the door trims and gear stick boot.. Has a nice saddle leather type scent..not overpowering just mild.. |

I'm using Mothers brand leather cleaner and conditioner. leaves a matt finish and isn't oily to touch. Leaves a coconut scent though and depends whether you like that or not (lasts for first 1 day, the smell that is)
