Re: Leather Treatment
I've cared for leather for over 50 years. I can say without hesitation that the best way to keep your leather looking good for a long time is to religiously keep it clean.
I have a collector car and its leather still looks like it was new in the showroom. I have leather furniture that is over 40 years old that still looks like new. The secret is to keep it clean and protected.
The key word here is "clean".
I will agree with many who say that conditioners on protected leather serves no purpose. But the process of cleaning and protecting the leather is indisputably the key to it's longevity.
As I've previously posted, I clean my leather weekly with QID and do a deep cleaning at least quarterly.
The key, if there is one, is to keep your leather clean.
