I always use Gliptone conditioner. Easy to apply and leaves a great smell

Gliptone is well liked here but do remember, the leather in LR cars is dyed and waterproofed so don’t waste too much time trying to feed it with products that simply evaporate! |

As Craig says, pretty much all car leather is heavily treated on the surface with dye. Well, technically they call it a dye because it provides a colour but truthfully it can be likened more to paint. None of the leather "foods" actually sink in, they either evaporate away or leave a sticky residue.

Yes, it's all coated with polyurethane. "Conditioner" could only soak in if the surface coating was damaged. |

Zymol to clean and gliptone but you don't need much at all for a rangey as above it only seeps in around the stitches. The steering wheel is the big thing that benefits from a regular good clean and light feed imo as the stitches benefit loads where I rest my thumbs anyway 😂😊 FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
