I've heard of Lexol.

Is there a better product out there. I would be using this for furniture and car seats. THanks.
 
I've heard great things about Lexol as well. Interested to hear responses also. I purchased Meguiars leather cleaner and conditioner a couple months back and haven't used it much yet but am hoping for good results. (Fingers crossed)

I use Howard's cleaner and conditioner.
Great combo IMO

The company has been in business for a long time for good reason.
It's inexpensive and was great.

I've used it. I've had both good and bad results with it. One one coat, it didn't bond and made the beading worse. On another, it just didn't coat - it was weird. Of course, on another it worked fantastic. I think it's a good product, when it works...

To the OP: I personally like Leather Masters. They have great stuff. For perforated seats if you prefer a cleaner/conditioner, I really have been enjoying SONAX Leather Foam. It works just as advertised and doesn't clog the pores. I should have a review of it up in the next week or so. Happy detailing!
 
I ordered up the leather master protectant. After searching for 30 minutes, seemed most people like this product. Unfortunately it is out of stock at AGO but on amazoni got it with free shipping so it wasnt a big deal. Should get it next week and will post my results.
 
Different products work better with some fabrics on vehicles vs. others. That said, in general I find Lexol works better than Mothers; for both Vinylex and their leather care products. I will have more proof this season when I do a 50/50 with VLR and Lexol for a second time on my Acura.

Maybe one day I will try Leather Master. Someone here awhile ago mentioned Leather Honey and that is on my radar screen as well.
 
Years ago I worked in the western boot industry, and made many visits to boot mfr.’s and to some leather tanneries. The experts have all told me that Lexol is in their opinion the best product to use on leather and exotic skins. I offer my clients two options; my standard AIO leather cleaner/ conditioner which is in the package, or Lexol as an upgrade. Depending on the condition and quality of their leather seat I will make a recommendation (won’t sell them on Lexol if their leather is too far gone).

I’ve seen many different brands of leather cleaning and conditioning products on the market over the years, and it’s hard to tell which the best is, so I’m going to stay with what the expects in the industry say that deal with the leather in the beginning stages.

I also explain to some of my client, with their seats being made of animal hide they still needs to be cleaned and conditioned to stay healthy & supple , just as our skin needs to be cleaned and conditioned to stay healthy & supple.


Just my 2 cents.

I have some jeans satin on my wife nissan rogue 2016 beige color leather seat, I tried griot garage interior cleaner and I did not work so well, how can I clean it and protect it for later?
I really need:
1. Leather cleaner
2. Leather protector,
3. Interior cleaner
I had 303 aerospace for interior protection
Should I just buy some merg APC for clean up interior, or buy QID?
 
It's in your best interest to check out 303 Aerospace's 3 in 1 leather cleaner/conditioner. This product may not get a lot of pub but it should! I've been using it for a while now and there's several reasons I like it:

-it's easy to use
-it cleans the surface while protecting it
-pleasant scent
-dries pretty quickly, especially when it's warm!

In addition to the above its priced right and it's available OTC (in a pinch)

If you take my advice here you'll be very happy and this will be a monthly ritual for you, you'll enjoy using it THAT much 👍👍
