What do you use on your leather/dash???
I want to know which products everyone is using on their leather and their dash...
I am currently using Lexol (the 2 bottle kit) for my leather, but I am not sure that I am pleased with it. I need to revive my leather.
On my dash, I am using black magic with the satin/flat finish (very satisfied)...
Always open to better stuff though.

Nothing on the dash except a damp cloth to dust it. I typically don't like the look of any product on the dash so I like just wiping it with a damp cloth from time to time. I have heard aerospace stuff is good and leaves the surface grease look free so if you want to use something that's probably the way.
For seats I use Zaino leather in a bottle.

In the past I have used 303 on everything, but didn't really like what it made my seats, wheel, and shifter feel like. This summer I switched to Lexol for the seats, wheel, and shifter and really like how it leaves the leather. It is "dry" feeling as in no grease or slime feel if that makes any sense. I still wipe the dash down with a damp cloth and then put 303 on it.

No way lol ....why go through that struggle bro? I used The ArmorAll wipes to clean the dash and for my leather also ArmorAll Leather protectant...it leaves it so soft for a long time and it smells great!

For those that don't like residue on their dashboard I highly recommend Meguiar's Quik Interior Detail spray. It leaves a finish that's basically like you wiped it with water, but has some UV protectant along with some other benefits that don't leave any sort of residue or "wet" look. Only downside is that it does smell a bit like sunscreen lotion/spray afterwards, but quickly airs out.

I'll 2nd on Meguiar's Quik Interior Detail. It does have the smell but it won't leave that wet residue on the dash. It's perfect!
I also use Meguiar's Ultimate Black Plastic for the side walls where the seatbelt sits on, also use this for plastic by the door entrance where the A C U R A logo is in embedded (black plastic though)... I've also used this for the front grill where I've plasti dipped.. Brings the black shine back to the plasti dip..

I use to me anal about my seat and interior till I found out acura doesn't use real leather nor do most car companies. It's bonded leather, which is extremely think.. Sort of like a wood veneer on a substrate.
Found that out when I undid my seats. This is why the leather cracks and u see a different color in the crevice.
So now I am not as concerned as I use to be. I just use meguires one seats meh

I bought a bottle of 303 a while back but have been too lazy to apply it, the car is my DD so I rarely go crazy with cleaning. I thought the leather had a plastic coating on it? Seems like leather conditioner would be a waste if it doesn't actually penetrate the leather. I was planning on using 303 on the seats in a few days before I throw in a kid seat for an extended period to protect it, as well as a car seat cover/protector thing.

The Black Magic I use is not shiny at all. It is the "matte" finish one and I dont have any problems with dust build up.
The 303 stuff... is it petroleum based or silicone based or water based?
