Hey guys, I am looking into a new leather conditioner for the less expensive details. Here are the candidates. Leather will be cleaned with APC before hand. Poorboys Leather Stuff Duragloss 221 Leather Conditioner CG leather cleaner/conditioner
I've used the CG cleaner/conditioner and have to say I did not like it. Left a scent too strong for me which lasted almost a week. And it didn't do too much to enhance the look of the leather. Just my opinion though.
I've heard Zaino is pretty good and I like my SCG Voodoo, it has a very nice leather scent to it. It's not a restoration type conditioner but it is nice for maintenance.
Have you considered Mother's? I believe it is the recommended Lexus leather conditioner, or @ least it was years ago.
I noticed you said "budget", but my favorite is probably leatherique pristine clean. It contains a small amount of their conditioner, and cleans very well. The finish left is very matte / natural. I've used the lexol, and although it was a while ago, it created a bit of a sheen.
I have used PB's Leather Stuff. it seems like a protectant with a leather like smell. It is ok. If you look at the trading section, someone may have one for trade.
Get a gallon of Optimum Protectant - just shake the hell out of it before using cause it separates like oil/vinegar salid dressing!
Surf City Garage Voodoo Blend Leather Rejuvenator. Cheap, works well, not greasy. I use it like this: 1.) Pre-clean leather with SCG Dash Away. 2.) Apply SCG Voodoo Blend with an applicator pad. 3.) Let sit for 1 hour or more, then buff down with MF towel and a light mist of Dash Away.
High volume I'd go with optimum just because I like the way it finishes dashes also. But I'm almost exclusively leather masters products on any seat that is not completely cracked open and destroyed already.
