I have a 1998 993 C2S, and I would like to rejuvinate the black basketball-textured leather-like strip that runs along the dash and the doors. Is a leather product the thing to use, or is a plastic/trim product better suited to darken and freshen this interesting material?

Thanks!

Everything you’ll ever want to know about automotive leather upholstery – but were too afraid to ask.

Thanks, but I am not convinced that black strip of material is indeed leather. Does anyone know what that stuff is and what works best to condition it?

To be safe, you could try a product that works on both. I keep coming back to 303 Aerospace Protectant. Very versatile stuff that I've used on vinyl, leather and rubber.

^^^Thank you!

303 is good. Zaino Z10 is good, too.

Another vote for 303 on vinyl. Being safe on leather is just an added bonus.

I was never sure if it was leather in my 993. Please let me know if you ever find out.

besides the 303 aerospace which is nice.

I would also consider 1Z einszett Cockpit which is our best selling interior cleaner, which will an OEM finish, no sheen or gloss.
