Leather conditioner that leaves behind a DULL look?
When my leather was new it has a nice low shine look..after the years it has taken on a shine that I hate. Does anyone know which brand of leather conditioner leaves behind a really DULL finish on the leather? Thanks

I have always been a fan of Lexol. The cleaner will get rid of that shine and then finish it up with the conditioner. It should result in a nice matte look.

Is the shine from your coniditioner, or is it a sheen from wear and tear?? I use Meguiars or Lexol .. both seem to keep the leather looking pretty good, but if you don't clean regularly the dirt trapped in the leather can leave a "shine" on the leather from the polishing action.

I use Zaino. It comes with a leather cleaner and a leather conditioner. I smells great and drys pretty fast (depending on the humidity and temperature)

Edit: The Lexol wipes really don't leave too much of a shine. I find that it looks shiny at first, but dries fairly dull. Zaino doesn't leave a shine at all, in my experience.

A good leather cleaner is a mix of woolite and water. Works better than many dedicated leather cleaners.
