All wipes suck.

DP total interior cleaner, condition with Pinnacle Leather Conditioner. Buff off after 20 min. If theres anymore residue then wipe down with LIGHTLY damp cloth.

How about Lexol?
Somebody suggested this to me when I asked around about my leather seats, but I have been unable to find it around town so far. Going out of town today will see if I can find some.
But if somebody here has used it let me know.

I just cleaned and conditioned the seats in my 07 Lariat with Zaino Brother's Z9 Cleaner and Z10 Conditioner. Awesome stuff!!! Left the leather really soft, no residue at all ,and not greasy feeling afterwards.
I second the Zaino recommendation!

I've used both the Meguiars and Lexol. Both seemed to work good, but the Meguiars smells better. The Lexol is a true two-step product. I get mine at AutoZone. If you can't find it, go to any BMW, Porsche, or other high-end German dealership...all they stock (at least around here) is the Lexol.

If you cant find the Meguiars stuff in stores just order it online. I bought some items online and I couldnt beleive the short time it took to arrive at my home. My local pep boys, autozone, etc dont carry all of their products so what they dont carry I just order

I use Wolfgang Leather Care Cleaner and Wolfgang Leather Care Conditioner.
I bought them from autogeek.net. They are non toxic, ph balanced and also have UV protection. The conditioner also smells like new leather and is non greasy. I spray the seats with the cleaner and lightly scrub with a finger nail brush. That way you can get in all the little creases. I cloth won't get all the dirt. After cleaning, I rub in the conditioner with my hand. Just like you would put lotion on your own skin. I buff dry after about 20min with a micro fiber towel. My seats look better than when I bought my truck.

I'm gonna have to order some Meguiar's from there. Tough time finding it in town even with a lot of auto part stores, they just have the all in one.

Well, I've got a resolve for all of you with leather seats that hate the problem of taking care of it.

You can swap with me. I've got a brand new '07 XLT screw with gray cloth interior that is a lot easier to take care of than leather.

Zaino "Leather in a Bottle" is the best leather product out there. It even brings the leather smell back.

Correct me if I am wrong but isn't Ford still using a plastic coated leather?
Other than the King Ranch of course.
A lot of the higher end cleaners may be a waste of money.
