I've been using Lexus leather conditioner all these times. Last week when I ran out I tried some Lexol and immediately returned it. It doesn't smell good or has no leathery smell. I'm going to drop by Lexus dealer sometimes this week and pick up some conditioners.

There isnt a Lexus dealership to close by me, do you think the Toyota dealership should have the same leather conditioner since some of its vehicles had leather. Do you think it would be the same product???

Sewell Lexus has the 8 oz. Lexus leather conditioner and cleaner for less than $6 each--significantly the cheapest prices I've seen yet (I paid $18 for a bottle once at Lexus of Tacoma):

I would give a recommendation for Leatherique. The Pristine Clean kick ****, much better than Lexol or Meguiars in my experience.

I tried mothers and then switched to Eagle one conditioner/cleaner. I find it softens slightly better and is less shiny than mothers. Haven't tried the lexus stuff yet. If you detail once in two weeks or less, any one of the above should suffice. The most important being keeping the leather clean and nourished regularly.

I use Turtle Wax Emerald leather conditioner. It works fine; absorbs into the leather quickly; has a nice smell; and doesn't feel greasy. Very cheap at $4 a large bottle. After 3 years, I still have more than half left. I apply it once every 3 months.

The only downside is that it makes the seat sound "funny" for about half a day. So I usually apply it before bedtime.

I have been using Leatherique for over 10 years and have tried many other products. Leatherique is by far the best on the market; expensive but effective.
