Search is a good idea, since this subject has been touched on several times. I had to post, because I've been using products from Griot's Garage. Their leather/interior cleaner is amazing stuff and leaves no residue. I use their leather dressing with applicators and the boars hair brush. Their "Best of Show" wax is great also. They have a lot of really neat detailing items in their catalog. And oh yea, their leather scent spray is great also. Very authentic. Put a shot or two once a week and you'll keep that leather smell for a long time.

I've used Zaino "Leather in a Bottle" for years, along with their leather pre-cleaner -- both have produced fantastic results.

Cheers,

I have some Meguiars Leather cleaner/conditioner that I use. Works pretty good on cleaning, not great, but good, and i can tell my leather is getting softer/plusher a little from it.

I got it at Wally world for like 10 bucks

The Lexol two-step method is pretty good.

Get some hot water in a bottle/pail/whatever, and wipe down the seats with that. Spray on the cleaner and scrub the leather real good. Wipe it off again with a clean damp rag (hot water again). Let it dry, then spray on the conditioner and work it in with your fingers.

I picked this method up from RockPick... it works pretty good.

It'll stay kind of shiny for maybe a day or so, but when it is shiny, it doesnt leave that annoying armor-all shine (or smell). It seems to soften up the leather some too... which is pretty nice!
