How often do you condition your leather?

yepp how often once a month? once every few months? and do you do it yourself? what do you use? or do you take it someplace? how much?

i havent done any conditioning to the TL since i bought it last February, its coming up on a year now and im starting to see things on it.

damn that's pretty dirty haha.. i haven't conditioned my leather yet.. i got my car in August of 2005. Probably cause I have ebony leather and can't see much of the dirt. But after a wash, I use the microfiber cloth that I used to dry the car, on the inside and give it a slight wipe down. It's only slightly saturated with water so it's not damaging or anything. My interior is spankin clean; no conditioning needed for me..

I wipe down the seats with every wash, clean about every 2-3 weeks and condition once a month. I use lexol cleaner and lexol conditioner..tried the Meguiars, it's not as good IMHO. They try to combine the cleaner and conditioner and as with all combos, you lose out on SOMETHING.

So now, I use whats left of the Meguiars on my girlfreind's Accord, and the Lexol on my car. and everytime I condition I remind people to "take it easy on the leather" like Jason Statham in The Transporter.


BTW: I would imagine that if the leather had cracks like that, it's probably a little late to be conditioning.
