Leather Treatment
#2
Not necessary, but a REALLY good idea...
I believe most people will agree here that Lexol makes the best conditioner for our leather. I do it about every 2 months.
It's recommended to prevent cracking and discoloration in the seats. If you don't want this to happen to your leather, definitely treat it.

I had to go to 2 different auto parts to find Lexol. My Acura dealer sells it but the auto parts were closer.
Previously (about 4 times over about 5 months) I have used Meguiars Gold Class leather cleaner/conditioner. Lexol is way better than that stuff!
I would say its a neccesity to clean your leather. Especially the drivers seat, since it gets used so much it gets REALLY dirty. You'll be surprised how much dirt you find when you Lexol your seats!
------------------
2001 Silver TL, non-navi, Inspire tails & wood steering wheel, 2 burlwood dash kits & shift knob, TL-S passenger vent trim, Alumapro BP-10 & ZX400TI Phoenix Gold, Python 1500 ESP (remote start, all windows up & down, sunroof closes, prox, etc), factory spoiler & body kit, AEM short ram intake, blue alarm LEDs, Mugen grill, Comptech sways, springs & exhaust, SuperCrystal lugs, black chrome emblems.
On order: 19" Alstadt IVs, 225/35ZR19 Nitto 555s, Apex'i V-AFC, Solaris 9005, Fuji digi-cam.

VTEC, I used the gold class... I like the Lexol a lot more. The leather guy that did my steerig wheel said he preffered Lexol over Meguiars... said Meguiars leaves a coating, sort of like a clear coat you can't get off. While Lexol is more like a wax, you can get it off. Go ahead and try both, bet ya that you like Lexol better.
I got the Lexol cleaner and Lexol conditioner, they were $9 each.

I use the Pinnacle brand cleaner and for me it works great. Have not tried Lexol but have heard that is good as well.
