Best Leather care product (w/o oily feel)
I need to treat my leather in my TL, (quartz interior) and was wondering what is the best leather treatment out there today, that also of course is affordable. One note: I hate stuff that leaves it oily and slick to the touch; I want something that hopefully treats and protects it but to where you can't notice it, if that's possible.
Recommendations...?

if you dont want an oily feel after treating your leather, follow it up with a dry microfibre wipe down...i wipe everything down with meguiars gold class leather wipes, then after i do that i grab a dry microfiber and wipe everything down again...works good for the dash areas too....

I like Leather Masters Cleaner and protectant. 99% of Automobile Leather is "Coated" or "treated" with a layer of polycarbonate so a "leather Conditioner" basically sits atop this layer but never actually penetrates into the leather. The leather is specially prepared at the leather facility to not need conditioning.The most important step in leather care is cleaning it and keeping it clean with a water based cleaner. You probably have that greasy residue because you are sitting on the conditioner which is sitting on top of your treated leather. Like Vinnie said you can take a microfiber towel and wipe away the excess. From all the research I have done Conditioners are not effective in reality in the long run and some conditioners can actually lead to pre-mature damage to the leather. Here is a link to site that sells leathermasters but I recommend that you research it more for your own info.

once I started using Zaino Z10, I never want to use a different product for leather...
Everyone that rides in my car always notices the nice and light leather smell from Zaino, and comment that my car never goes old...

buy a bottle of LEATHERIQUE PRESTINE CLEAN and clean your seats with it. Follow up with a LIGHT coating of 303 aerospace protectant for the mean time, and when you have more cash get the rejuvenator oil.
