    Leather protectant suggestions

    2023 Acadia with “leather.” Been using optimum protectant. Pretty happy but wondering if anyone has other interesting suggestions. Not a coating please.

    thanks.

    Pinnacle Black Label Leather&Vinyl coating. Gyeon LeatherCoat. All I’ve used and will continue to use. Both have been stellar.

    Have a look at Geist Leather Conditioner, one of the few leather conditioner products that can actually penetrate and benefit "top coated" leather. Just don't expect a glossy finish, it delivers that matte / OE look.

    How do those products smell?

    Little to no scent, just the natural aroma of the product itself. The vast majority of their products are plant derived with a focus on both user and material safety.

    I initially didn't love the leather conditioner, but after I modified the application to suit my usual method, I'm a fan of it now. It goes on quick slick and greasy looking, but it dries to a matte/satin finish with no oiliness to the look and feel.

    Been using BLACKFIRE leather complete for a few years now. Nice product. Not greasy. Leaves a great final look.
