Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I have a question about leather care products. I remember reading here a while back about a leather conditioner that smells like natural leather. I know that's not a good reason to chose one product over another, but truly just about anything has to smell better than what I'm using now.

I thought Leatherique was only for aniline leather.

Silicone and oil based conditioners these are all damaging to urethane coated leather, as they block the movement of moisture back and forth (evaporation and hydration) regardless of what they say on the products label.

I know our '99 TL has "coated" leather. Don't know with what?


Some wrinkles and "white" areas are developing on the tan drivers seat (165K miles). Can this be re-dyed?

I have used Leatherique on our sports car (untreated leather) but I'm not sure if the TL would take the dyes since it is treated.

Answer here or point me to a topic)

Thanks,
