You can get silicone-free, greaseless cream at any store that sells leather jackets. I think it is around $6 for a bottle, that will do a few apps. I wouldn't trust the cheaper hand creams.

I use Meguirs (sp) It smells good, non-oily and keeps the leather looking good for a while.

If you know what a Tack Shop is, you can look for Lexol leather conditioner

I use Zymol. But have you guys tried the Lemon kitchen Scrub? Do the scrub and then do the conditioner. Will feel and look brand new. This is the trick used by USED car sales people. You will see day and night change! I used it on my Acura 3.2. My better car-Camry is not leather......take note.

IMO - Tanners Leather Oil is the best thing you can use.

It is cheap, it protects, and more importantly you would have to put an insane amount on the leather to damage it (over oiling can cause as much damage as under oiling)

http://cgi.ebay.com/Tanners-Leather-...QQcmdZViewItem

I ruined an expensive Corbin motorcycle seat by putting the popular products found in automotive stores on it (lexol / zymol / etc)

After talking in depth with a local leather shop owner, I discovered that using the tanners oil once or twice a month with a nice light coat was the way to go.

She puts the lotion on the skin or else she gets the hose again.
