TSX Leather

Does anyone has suggestions for a good Leather cleaner/conditioner? I was looking at the Meguir's Gold Class Leather Cleaner/Conditioner? any thoughts?

Also I think the leather is a natural uncovered leather so we need a water based product.

I've been using Zymol's leather cleaner and conditioner on my '09. People always comment on how my car still has the "new car smell":

I use the Meguiar's leather cleaning/conditioning spray. It's good for perforated leather since the creamy stuff could get stuck in the perforations...

I've had good results with Zaino Z9/Z10 combo. Have also heard great reviews for Leatherique and Connoly's

Yeah with zaino, you gotta get a tooth pick though and pop out the white chunks out the perforations after you apply it :-P I use zaino as well, for everything. Meugans orwhatver for wax and protectants. They make a solid product.

after you clean it you gotta condition it. I'd reccommend zaino products for looks, Practicality I would go with Meug, As Zaino products are geared towards show cars, and not so much daily driver use.

I use Meguiar's gold leather and I think it works well. Everyone always asks me if I have a new car because it smells new.

Hmm...never had this happen for me.
I usually over-apply the conditioner on the leather using my hands, then leave it for a day and remove the next day with a good MF - works a treat

I agree with Tishkevich... Zaino makes an amazing product but requires a lot of work from you. Meguiar's is almost as good but goes on fast and with little effort. Their detail spray is awesome for keeping the car shiny and polished between waxes. I also use their interior cleaner to clean the dash, doors, etc... Been using Meguiar's products for almost 20 years now and no complaints whatsoever. But Zaino makes a nice product even though it's a little more expensive.

I was wondering when to start using these leather conditioning products as my car is a little over 3 months old. How long should I wait before using these products? or should I be using them already?

I don't think you can go wrong with Meguiars, I use their carwash soap, wax, and leather care products. I can't really comment on anything else, because i haven't used anything else.
