How to treat old, old leather seats
Always use Lexol products on my leather seats. Just bought a car that has had no treatment in 40 years. I cleaned and treated with Lexol, does anyone know of something else I can message into the leather? Vasoline, or something similar? Don't know if its necessary, just don't want to see these beautiful seats damaged.

Connolly hide care conditioner-previously called Hide Food until the FDA said it isn't a food.

Re: How to treat old, old leather seats
+1 on Connolly "Hide Food", -1 on FDA. I use the former on the leather in my cars and have done so for years. Griot's also has a good leather conditioner.
(edited to correct the government agency. Should have added the DOT requirement for the color of brake fluid too, but these aren't supposed to be political, are they?)
