A non-shiny prod for Nappa leather care and cleaning?
I would appreciate opinions on care of the NAPPA leather in my new X5 that also has the extended leather on the dash.
I realize there are many different preferences on leather care. I am seeking out opinion on a leather product that will protect and maintain the Nappa leather yet avoid a shiny appearance or sheen. Is this possible? Is the BMW branded leather protectant/cleaner from the dealer any good? My local detail shop used crappy ArmourAll on the dash when I had it in for a quick wash- needless to say it looked like shit. Your opinions on a non shiny leather protectant are appreciated. |

I still use Lexol on all my leathers, home and Automobile
http://www.lexol.com/ Meguiars also has an excellent leather cleaner/conditioner but I only use it as a backup when I run out of lexol. http://www.meguiars.com/en/automotiv...erconditioner/ |

I use this on all my cars. The leather in our cars predominately comes from this company, so I figured they would have the best care products for it as well.... And they do. Check them out online, it's a bit pricey but I will guarantee it's better than Lexol.
All u have to do is warm up the leather, use a hot damp towel to wipe it down and open up the pores, and the. Just drizzle everywhere and hand massage in. Then just leave it for an hour, and when you come back to it you will see the difference.

I use Zymol cleanser and conditioner. The cleaner does a good job getting all the oils from your body off. That right there takes the sheen away and the conditioner, when worked in looks like it come from the factory.
