Leather Conditioner and Pre Wax Sealer
Just picked up my beautiful new 05 Legacy Wagon...suhweeet. Only problem is I have black exterior and black paint. Not my 1st choices but i got a good price so the compromise was needed.
What leather cleaners and conditioners do some of you like? I'm looking for something non-greasy so I won't slide around much and that won't stain my clothes.
Also, for pre-waxing, I remember I used to use this liquid sealant made by 3M. It was awesome stuff. It brought out the luster of the paint. It was a tannish color and fairly watery, not like a paste. Anyone remember this or using it? Please tell me the name of it and where I can get some.

My dealer actually used a sealer called AutoMate and applied it four times a year, free of charge, for the first two years. It produced great results; my silver 02 WRX which is parked outside every day for the last 3 years (in Arizona sun!) shows no signs of sun damage or dullness anywhere.

I use Lexol cleaner followed by Lexol conditioner on my leather and have been very happy with it. It is widely available at Ace Hardware.
Also, with leather upholstery, it is very important to vacuum the debris out of the seems, as if it is left in there it cuts away at the threads over time.
