KR conditioner on Lariat/FX4 leather ???

Any downsides to using the King Ranch saddle shop leather conditioner on regular Lariat/FX4 leather ???
I got a bottle from a buddy of mine and tried it and like it ( smells great, too ) but was wondering if it is bad for the coated leather in the lariat/FX4.

Opinions!!!

It's specifically formulated for analine leathers but, I don't think that you can hurt a thing by trying it.

Let's put it this way -- if it were mine, and I was holding a bottle of it in one hand, I'd not hesitate to try it.

I'm not a big fan of KR conditioner though... even on my KR leather.

Thanks Rockpick

What would you recommend ??
I tried Lexol and it seemed to make the leather kinda sticky, no matter how much I buffed it. The KR stuff made it a little smoother/ slicker, not like armor-all slick, but just enough that you clothes slide better. ( make sense ??? )

Thanks,
Matt

Uhh... I guess.

Have you tried Meguiar's Rich Leather Aloe Cleaner and Aloe Conditioner? If not, give those a whirl. That's probably my favorite leather combo out there...

Also, before you begin cleaning, use a HOT DAMP RAG to remove the excess junk on the seats. By doing this, you'll help open some of the porosity of the clear coat material that is on the Lariat's leather.

hands down the best is the Zaino leather cleaner and conditioner.

I don't think I've ever used it w/out getting compliments about how great it feels, looks and/or smells.
