Keeping new leather seats from cracking
I plan on purchasing a new Lexus with leather seats. It has disturbed
me to see so many pre-owned vehicles with leather seats (3-4 years old) with cracks in the leather I keep my cars for atleast 10 years and want to do my best to preserve the leather. There are so many products out there such as Lexol, Leatherique, Armor-all leather cleaner etc. Some are all-in-one products, some have seperate cleaner and conditioner. Please share your advice on keeping the leather seats in top condition. Which products? How often to treat? etc. |

Took a lot of rubbing and several applications, but did remove it the next day, without harming the finish or color. Looks like some of the black dye from new clothes also rubbed off on the leather - removed that rather quickly. Leatherique is more costly than other products, but you probably only need to purchase once a year. Got their start rejuvinating cardboard hard leather in a classic Jaguar, details are on the web page. |

I used those products on my 2003 ES300 with excellent results. The beige leather now looks like new. |
