I have never used it ,but as far as the king ranch I have read in couple deferent reviewers that the king ranch leather is tricky to treat . Some guys I no in the business said that they went with fords offering leather condition,they did not want to take any chances do to the fact that if you mess up the lather theres a warranty issue for the owner. Hope this helps some / Good Luck !

I have used Conolly Hide Care on my previous '00 Acura TL. Does a good job conditioning, but smells like a pure kerosene.

Doesn't Ford makes a special leather conditioner for King Ranch? That will be your best bet, especially if leather is uncoated.

like supercharged said, i have also used it on my 00 Acura TL and my grandfather's Lariat F150. Its a nice product but the smell is VERY potent. I prefer Pinnacle just because of that.

Just a heads up on the "King Ranch Leather". Their warranty on the leather is tied to only using the Ford KRL Conditioner (which is made by Duragloss I believe).

In that case Duragloss could be an alternative conditioner?

That's exactly what I thought also. I wonder if DG could tell us if they are the supplier to Ford. May have to ask.

I use Connolly Hide Food on my Cadillac (uncoated) leather and love it. Nothing works as well. Doesnt seem to have the same power on Vette and thus any leather cleaner works, but I feel it is likely that leather is coated due to roof being removable.

This product may not be compatible with vinyl covered leather and could damage the urethane.

Just run down to the Ford Dealership. The one here in town has KR Leather cleaner/conditioner..... as well as a shelf full of Duragloss products...
