Leather cleaner and protector recommendation.

Just wondering what you guys use for leather cleaner and protector.
saw the leather cleaning wipes at Target but I doubt it's any good nor would it cover the whole interior.

Wolfgang is great!

I have always been pleased with the Wolfgang line of leather products that are available at Autogeek.com

I was introduced to the Zaino line of car care products through Corvette ownership. IMO, the best products for interior/exterior care.

Please avoid those, especially if its the Armor All kind. It does nothing but leave a nasty shine on all your surfaces.

I've had great experiences with leather cleaners from Sonax. You can try Chemical Guys too.

I have been using Lexol Cleaner and Conditioner Leather Products for over 20 years. Kept my 2012 MDX’s Parchment interior clean and looking like new.

My trim is Ebony. I've used regular Kiwi Saddle Soap for years, followed by Kiwi Conditioning oil, twice a year. Does a great job of cleaning the trim, and keeping it soft, and crack/split free, 16 years old, with 241K, and trim is still in beautiful condition.

I've used Mothers products for over 15 years and I've always liked their leather care, clay bar, wax and everything in between. All of the ones mentioned are good, but as others have stated, no Target wipes.

Here's my favorites, after EXTENSIVE tryouts of just about everything. I'm admittedly a clean car crazy. This assumes paint needs no significant correction (polishing):
Wash, Clay (all brands seem to be similar), Seal (Wolfgang 3.0), Wax P21s (after 24 hr. curing), and 303 for unpainted trim, tri-nova for tires, and Zaino #9 and #10 for leather.

That’s a nice setup you got there.

so what about the real wood trims now? 303 can be wiped across the plastic dash buttons. Do we need a separate wood cleaner or conditioner?
