    Leather conditioners that cause seats to become slippery?

    I've only used chemical guys leather conditioner and I'm not impressed. It causes the seats to become slippery.

    Does anybody have any product suggestion for a conditioner under 20?

    Well...I have the older version of this:

    Sonus Leather Conditioner, leather care, upholstery, car seats

    And it isn't slippery at all. Not sure what the newer Polycharged version is like, it could be completely different.

    I'll suggest:

    1.) No "conditioners"...Ever!
    -It's:
    Clean & Protect; Clean & Protect; Clean & Protect!!!

    2.) Leather Master Car Leather Protection & Cleaner Kit, Leather Master Ink Away Ink Remover, ink lifter, leather cleaner, leather protection

    the trick with CG LC is to finish with a good dry MF buff or even a damp (water) MF buff. It's okay to use it for the protection benefit, but the conditioner side is probably doing nothing if you have coated leather/vinyl (see Bob's post). Even protectants like 303 Aerospace or BF Interior Protectant will be a little slippery without a good final dry/damp buff.

    Not for nothing but there aren't many leather seats left that will see any benefit from leather conditioner. Most vehicles come with urethane treated leather which is designed to protect the leather beneath preventing liquids from penetrating. A quick way to find out if you have treated or untreated leather is to put a few drops of water on the surface and watch to see if they soak in or just sit on top.

    Throw collinite leather and vinyl wax/coating in the ring. I've had great success with it.

    I like this:

    Mothers Leather Cream Moisture-Rich Conditioner

    Spread one section at a time, and remove excess right after, before moving to next section.

    Best Wishes.

    I agree, the leather conditioner and cleaner does the same! I am looking for a new cleaner.....according to the manufacture they say to apply to conditioner daily (like applying lotion) no thank you!!! Too much product to use

    I used meg leather conditioner on my brand new seats. It needs a buff for sure. I have lexol now and will see how that performs
