While not a 'review', per-se, I have to give you some feedback on CG's Leather Conditioner (LC).
I have a 2011 BMW with a dark saddle brown interior. It felt and looked a bit dry after this past winter and I thought it would be a good candidate for CG's LC. Yes, I know my seats have a protective layer that won't be penetrated. This was mostly for 'my taste', not textbook results.
Using a small yellow foam applicator, I gently massaged the LC into my seats and all other leather trimmings. I ran out of time and didn't get to buff it off with a clean MF. The next day, my car had a new leather smell (kinda) again, the leather looked darker, had a nice sheen (not matte, which would have been if I had wiped off with a MF). But wait, here's the kicker. When I sit down, my butt slides/glides into the seat but stays put. It's so weird, but good! I don't have to 'adjust' when I get it, I literally slide into place but then stay put (no slide at all) during the ride.
And, no, there is no 'greasy' feeling nor look. Just a light 'sheen' that's perfectly dry to the touch.
That must sound weird, I know.
Bottom line - I really like the product and recommend it. Remember, a little goes a long way with this stuff, so don't dump it on. Massage it gently and thoroughly with a clean foam applicator is my recommendation for application.
