I know it’s been discussed here and there but could not find the reference - what is a recommended product to use on perforated leather seats that doesn’t cause them to get shiny ?

I use Leather Masters Cleaner and Swissvax Conditioner. Zaino is another good product which many like and is way cheaper than Swissvax.

I use lexol

Colourlock mild cleaner new leather kit if car is less than 3 years old. If older than 3, then you can use their leather conditioner. The cleaner foams so you are not applying to much wetness to the seat with the perforations. Get a dedicated small brush to use on the seat.

Lexol cleaner and then 303 aerospace protectant.

My favorite is Dr Beasley's Leather Cream.

It is the best product I've used for leather. Leaves it looking like new, with no shiny or oily finish. Just like it was when new.


Dr. Beasley's Leather Cream - 12 oz., Restores Color and Softness, Resists UV Fading, Matte Finish.

I just tried Sonax Leather Foam last weekend and can confirm no shiny finish left behind.

Just be careful with creams because it can get in the perforations. The Sonar is very good and very simple.

Been using the Sonax Leather Foam for years and it is extremely good at leaving a like new factory, non-greasy matte finish. Contains beeswax which is one of the best protectants for leather.

Bought a pair of L.L. Bean hunting boots while in college 35 years ago and treated them with Snowseal, which contains beeswax as the primary waterproofer and leather protectant ingredient, and they still look brand new today, even with never treating the leather ever again after purchase. L.L. Bean had some 100 year old leather on display that was treated with beeswax and it was remarkably supple and new looking. They claim ancient Egyptians used to use beeswax to protect “documents.” Anyway, the Sonax Leather Foam works really well without leaving any shine on the leather, and it is likely because of the beeswax.

I just bought the lexol this afternoon and tested it on the side seat bolster. It does absorb nicely and seems to maintain a flat no residue finish.

I use Leatherique cleaner / rejuvenator set.

Leather Masters products will make the leather look factory fresh, and feel soft/clean. IMHO it's one of the best leather systems out there.

Gyeon Q2 Leather. Great stuff finishes with a Matt finish. Pre clean with Gyeon leather cleaner.

this weekend i did Leatherique leather Rejuvenator (pour a bit in my hand, massage it in) and let it sit in the sun for 7 hours. then (believe it or not) Nextzett Cockpitt sprayed on and wiped it off. the results are FANTASTIC and worth the cost of the letherique.

looks and (more importantly) feels brand new
