I have chemical guys and I like it. Historically Lennox is the best. Alternatively mild soapy water will do fine of dried quickly or spot cleaned. YouTube is your friend.

There is no need to "condition" automotive seat leather. A damp with water microfiber and and a dry follow-up are all that is needed.

 

I use Adam's Polishes Leather Cleaner followed by Adam's Polishes Leather conditioner.
I also use Griots Garage 3 in 1 Leather cleaner and conditioner, it's a fantastic all in one product.

 

303 Protectant Spray and 303 Multi-Surface Cleaner, if needed. You can use them on just about any plastic or leather surface. Water-based, no artificial odors, no greasy film, leaves a natural matte finish, etc. Used them on many vehicles over the years, works great.

 

Maguiare's Gold Class Rich Leather Cleaner and Conditioner Spray. I don't use a lot as a little goes a long way.

 

Hey question on this. I JUST picked up my 2021 RT last week; I have a 3 year old who likes to kick the back of the seats from his car seat and I hadn’t put in the seat back protector before he rid in it and kicked the seat back. I got the Meguiers GOLD CLASSLEATHER CLEANER & CONDITIONER and just wiped down the dirty part that he kicked with his shoe and the wipes basically left a film behind where it was obvious where ai wiped...like, the new untouched leather was dull and clean, where I used the wipes it’s now shined and glossy. I ended up doing the whole seat because I didn’t want spots or streaks where I wiped the dirt but didn’t wipe the rest of the seat...now the passenger’s seat is shined and glossy and the driver’s seat is matte/flat/non-glossy (which is what I want. So the question is, does the shined look eventually soak in and dull out the seat again or is it shiny forever now?

 

Thanks for the advice, I ended up buying chemical guys cleaner and the conditioner. Gonna give it a shot if I can get some free time this summer 😃

 

There is always free time to take care of your leather seats

 

Why would leather need to be conditioned? Is there a benefit to doing that?

 

Leather will dry out over time. You’re supposed to “feed” it every once in a while (the definition of “every once in a while” changes depending on who you ask...some say every month, some say every quarter, some say twice a year, some say every year.) I have never owned a car that had leather seats long enough to see the effect drying out can have over time, but I have seen dried out and cracked seats. It doesn’t look good. I have a collection of leather boots and wash/condition them every other month or so using natural waxes (bees wax) and oils (mink oil) but haven’t put that on car seats. Honestly I was just trying to get the dirt off: I should have just used water and a microfiber rag instead of these wipes. My mistake. I need To do more research on how to condition leather car seats.

 

on my 24 yo car I have good luck with Griots and zymol leather cleaner and restorer
