Full leather cleaning and upkeep.

What do you guys use for the full leather dash and other components? I got some leather kit at the dealer... But have yet to use it. My interior is full SO, and I'm worried that anything I use will leave that oily look.

I also am interested in leather care tips.

What to use to protect and maintain the seat leather. How often?

Get their nubuck leather cleaner. I have tried virtually all leather products available. This is truly a "best in class" product. I also use it regularly on my butter soft Italian leather sofas in my home. It will NOT alter the appearance whatsoever!

I used to sell leather kits for cars for many years, for me, the best brand out there is Lexol, they have a leather cleaning and leather conditioner as separate products.
