Does Acura dealers have leather conditioner products?

Does Acura dealers have leather conditioner products? If so, is it expensive? If not, what is the best? The Zaino,Lexol products or what?

i dont know if Acura sells leather stuff. But if u got to a Jag or Royles Royce Dealer u can get this stuff called Hide Food .... I get mine from the Jag dealer its like 15 bucks or sumthing and it lasts a while ...
My mechanic told me bout it. He does detailing work too ...
He said put it on at night and leave the car in the garage.. the next morn before it gets too hot outside wipe it off ... leather gets softer everytime ...
hope that helps

It wont leave streaks on the seats huh? I tried Tanners Preserve Leather Conditioning Cream once.(red bottle with black cap) and it left streaks like you would not believe. And i cant get it out! Ill try that Hide Food. You said its $15? That hide food is better than lexol,meguires and zaino products? How long does the bottle last? So i leave it on overnight and wipe it off in the morning? Thanks

Acura does sell its own detailing kit. I bought it at my dealer for ~$12. Comes with 3 aerosol cans: Spot Detailing, Window Cleaner and Leather/Vinyl Cleaner Conditioner. I used all 3 and they seem to do a decent job. I wouldn't use it as my only conditioner/cleaner.

Acura of Portland sells Lexol. They have a cleaner and conditioner. I think they sell if for $9 per bottle. You could probably get them at WalMart for less. Myself, I bought Meguiar's Gold Class Leather Cleaner & Conditioner. It works nice on my parchment interior, and only $6 at Target.
Whatever you get, test it out on a small hidden area to see how it looks befor you do your whole interior.

My dealer threw that kit in for free.... I know.... WOOHOO!

It's still sitting in my basement, I haven't even opened it in the 19 months I've owned the car.

I use Meguiers on my Leather/Pleather.

Acura dealers sell kits that have a leather vynil protectant contained in the kit. Go to an auto store & by a bottle of Lexol Cleaner & a bottle of Conditioner.
Lexol is one of the better Leather care products I have been using it for the past 7 yrs. It was hard to find some years ago but is found in most auto stores now. I have had very good results from it. I used it when I got my 94 Accord back in 93 that car had leather put in it & was not from the factory. I had a better quality leather on the seats then from factory. I use it on my 2000 TL now.
