When do you Leather Condition
Curious do you have schedule when you apply leather conditioner. To some degree, if it's a daily and sit's outdoors, it may dictate things differently.
Or a daily that get's alot of -seat time-
First real warm day today, with scheduled forecast of a summer's type weather tomorrow pattern starting this week. I did my leather conditioner today and should be good until the next year.
What determines it for me, is the weather. I've seen too many leather dashes peel from sun, heat....so it gives me the extra nudge to just keep it supple so it doesn't pull away from the glue .....best effort I suppose. I don't think conditioner really mitigates it - it's more the extreme heat from the windshield if you don't garage it . I do use a sun shade during the summer, whenever we are parked outside.
Basically my frequency is mainly driven to avoid this

Re: When do you Leather Condition
I do it when I think about it and/or get bored, so basically I over do it

Re: When do you Leather Condition
I gotta do more reading:youtube:revisit on colourlock leather shield on which I had re-topcoated back in February (aka, just 2 months ago).
Was slightly concerned but the conditioner took in just fine on all surfaces.....which is slightly surprising as passenger and rear seats have seen nil-none wear/use just since 60-75'ish days when it was re-top coated
I cannot confirm if the topcoat is shield. I do recall it wasn't the same wording - product verbiage listed on TRC site, as I grabbed it from TRC site (which is no longer there) and while TRC has it colourlock branded, it was name Colourlock Sealant.

Re: When do you Leather Condition
Theoretically warm or hot weather is better as it's the leather expands some and the pores are open more.
