got my tls 2 weeks ago!!...i was just wondering when did you first condition your leather seats and how often? I love the smell of a new car =) so im planning to wait a little b4 i condition them.

Is lexol the recommended product to use here? and does it leave an odor? thanks!

 

yes use lexol leather cleaner and the lexol leather conditioner after. it smells good not bad. you can get it at pepboys for like $8 a bottle. just spray n wipe.

its good ****.

Zaino's Leather in the bottle is great!

 

I use Meguiar's Medallion for Leather. It's tough to find, I end up buying it directly from their website.

My last car was eight years old when I got rid of it with 111,000 miles and I didn't have one tear or crack.

It's a little more expensive, between $15-$20 a bottle.

 

I use lexol evey few months... leather smells like new each time

 

If in the sun, IE FL or GA. Once a month.

 

I live in Florida so I use it once a month.

 

Is it me or does our leather in the TLs have that "wrinkled" look? I barely had my car for two months but the wrinkles look excessive? Am I just being paranoid?

 

See-fu when I first got my car I said the same thing. It seemed to get these long ugly wrinkles in it at first. Now I realized that's just leather my brothers Q45 does the same thing. I have come to live with it.

 

Typs S Lady my question is when does the wrinkle stop wrinkling?!?!? It's getting beyond annoying? Have you started applying conditioner on it?

 

That's what I should have said in my first email. I apply cleaner and conditioner by Lexol every four weeks and I don't see them anymore. Sometimes I slack a few weeks and when I see them I just reapply and they go away. I highly recommend doing the Lexol regularly.

 

You mean they completely disappeared? yesterday while I was leaving work I spotted a type s and when I looked inside, no wrinkles! I Was like OMG! When you apply the lexol every few weeks isn't it bad for your car?

 

Just applied lexol on the leather. Seems to me that it got a bit stiffer and the wrinkles are even more prominent. This is really pissing me off!

 

I don't know what's up. It works for me, do you have like a big oh butt? Or do like over weight people ride with you? I'm kidding! Maybe some other memebers can provide some additional help. Sorry.

 

The thigh supports on my front seats are showing wrinkles; other than that, the leather is more or less wrinkle-free.

 

Type S Lady I wish I could use being fat as an excuse but I can't. however when I checked out the leather today.. it looked better. maybe its just temporary but at least it looks decent for now. thanks for the advice!

 

I got the Acura leather cleaner/conditioner, and have only used it on a small patch. I am not sure about the overall effectiveness of it. Has anyone else used it before?

 

Personally, I think buying stuff at the dealers are a plain rip off. Don't get me wrong anything if you have the cash to spend then by all mean. For example the dealer charges 55 bucks for the Acura Oem wheel locks but if you look on internet sites esp Ebay you can get em for 20 bucks... Now that's what I'm talking about.

 

Yea' you're probably right... I'm not gonna use the Acura stuff on the whole interior. We also have a Honda Odyssey with loose wavy leather thats really soft... so I'm looking for the product thats best for both types of leather... which one do you guys recommend to keep the leather softest... Lexol, Zaino, or Meguire's? I live in Florida so I'd also like the most protective one.
