I have a 2015 daily driver that I use Meguiars leather conditioner on? How often do you condition it. I live in Texas which gets pretty hot in the summer.

Hi CRB, I have a 2017 Z06/Z07 with the 2LZ package - mulan leather.

As a precursor to your question: Most of today's leather seats are coated in vinyl so it's not like an old school bomber jacket or baseball mitt that gets softer and more supple with age (referred to as "naked" leather) - where as a high quality leather conditioner or oil will enhance the leather.

What is wildly more important that conditioning them is cleaning them. Cleaning meaning removing body oils, dye transfer from clothing and any other contamination that may land on them and imbed itself. For this step, I typically will use CarPro Inside neat or CarPro Multi-X @ 15:1 or 10:1 depending on the amount of contamination they show. Agitation is very important in this stage too, so go and get yourself a good pair of boars hair and synthetic detailing brushes, and while you are at it, pick up a leather brush from colourlock/swissvax. You can use the detailing brushes on the dash and doors and the seats too, or you can use the leather brush on the seats.

I will apply a conditioner when I am done with the cleaning phase. For this I like CarPro Perl @ 5:1 for the dash, doors and seats. I also like Swissvax Leather Milk neat.

I'll typically do a deep clean and condition every 2-3 months, with a light maintenance cleaning in between, or as needed. I'm in South Florida so we tend to sweat a good deal between April and October, so I'll keep after the cleaning more during that time range.

Good luck and let me know if I can help you further.

I have the Nappa leather I clean it and sometimes put UV protect on it.. nothing is really going to penetrate that stuff.. but spending money on shiny new bottles that don't do anything is fun too
