    Do you like some sheen when using a leather protectant on darker leather?

    Or, do you like the matte look as though it looks like you barely put anything on it?

    Re: Do you like some sheen when using a leather protectant on darker leather?

    I prefer a matte look, as if I put nothing on it. Funny you started this thread, I was just cleaning leather yesterday and loved how the leather looked after I cleaned it. I used 303 to protect it and it did a sheen to the leather. I was wondering if there are any leather protectants out there that leave a matte look?

    303 has way too much sheen, IMO. Leather Masters Protection cream is exactly what you're looking for. I have it and it's very matte as if nothing was applied!

    I like a more natural look - thus no sheen for me.

    I prefer matte. I have been really liking UIGP+ lately.

    You want Ultima interior guard plus. Accept no substitute .

    L1 leaves a nice look as well.

    I like the matte look.

    Recently tried Eco-Touch leather care and really really like it. Left a perfect finish, smells great, leaves leather soft and has some cleaning properties to it as well.

    This is a good one. However, I like Leather Masters because you can use it on all types of leather. I don't like being limited to just coated. Same with Prima Nourish, but it has too much sheen for my taste.
