does anyone notice there leather seats fading?

 

Use a trim protectant like 303 aerospace protectant or go all the way with Zaino Z10 leather in a bottle.

 

nope, i am always careful not to slide myself into the seat........no problem at all

 

because your car is almost brand new.. I use lexol to prevent from cracking..

 

Just a question, anyone. Where can I find this product? I have Zymol but Yea I keep reading about 303 aerospace and I'm clueless. Thanks for any help

 

I get it from any auto parts shop. Otherwise, http://www.wheretobuy303.com/locator/us-index.php

 

thanks! Ouch are they making me drive for it.... but anything for the baby! :-D

 

Lexol Leather Cleaners and Conditioners are A1 too.

 

My service manager told me that the tan loses its color too quick. I dunno what color you have but that is what I was told..

 

If it's already fading, I recommend a leather conditioner rather than that 303 protectant. The 303 protectant is good BEFORE your seats have faded. Go for the Zaino or Lexol conditioners if they have faded.

 

Lexol conditioner is best for TSX leather.. I have used it for about 1.5 year now.. My tsx is almost 2 year old.. no sign of fade on the leather. just be sure to put the conditioner on the real leather parts every two weeks.

 

Ace Hardware carries them, not sure if Ace is in Jersey though

 

i actually do that also....always making sure i don't slide in the seat. I also use Lexol conditioner regularly too. no fading or cracking here.

Lots of good info on this topic in Wash & Wax. I use Lexol to clean my leather, use Zymol to condition it, and use 303 to protect it. I've had my TSX over 3 years and the parchment seats aren't fading so much as they turned a slightly different color. The only way I can tell, though, is because I had my driver's side cover replaced 2 months ago and the color doesn't match the old color perfectly. You can only tell if you look closely, you wouldn't notice with just a casual glance.

 

Did you get the covers replaced at Acura? How much were they to get replaced?

 

i've been using 303 on my parchment seats to protect them and they look great after 3 years, no noticable color fadng

I did get one cover replaced under warranty (no cost) due to a blue stain on the seam (see this thread) on the drivers side. The replacement had nothing to do with fading.
