Terracotta leather treatment?

What leather treatment products do you use?

Especially for the Terracotta, I am looking for a product which doesn’t even apply the slightest shine to it. I like to keep the flat look…

Thanks!

I use Bickmore Leather Conditioner. It is for fine leather footware, but it works great on my seats. I too don't like the high gloss look, so the key is to be sure to wipe off any excess and buff out the shine after I apply the conditioner. All I use to apply and remove is an old torn up T-shirt.

Zaino Leather in a Bottle or Connolly Hide Care. I tried both on my Terracotta and both worked very well without leaving a shine. The Zaino is an easy to pour and apply liquid while the Connolly product is a thicker cream which you need to spread on an applicator before applying. Hope that helps.

If you do a search on "leather" or "leather care" and restrict it to the Cayman Care forum, you find a lot of info that's been posted previously - a lot of folks seem to like the Spineybeck products... I've used Lexol cleaner and conditioner for years, and it works fine for me - doesn't leave a glossy look and on my sand beige full leather, it doesn't modify the color at all. I think there might be some articles on leather care in the articles section, too - take a look.
