what do you like using on your leather?
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.
Neat’s-foot, Lanolin (Latin: lāna "wool", and oleum, "oil"), Mink Oil is a euphemistic name for liquefied pig fat and silicone oil, Tea Tree Oil, even the so-called Banana Oil, it is impossible to get any oil derived from a banana, its real name; Isoamyl acetate is a chemical additive, often used as a ‘cover-up’ aroma. 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.

Thanks,
