    My #1 rule for detailing, keep the ArmorAll dog from peeing on your ride. :lol:

    I use Lexol, following the directions on their website, not what's on the bottle (slightly different).

    Tan or you might call it the natural leather. Very nice!

    Wow, that is a tough one. I would suggest you use something on the spot only that would darken it t match up with the other leather. Lexol might be a good choice.

    Exactly what we've been using on it along with another leather conditioner. Pretty dang light to start with and very noticeable but its almost there.

    Their last ad campaign where the pit crew rushed out to scrub the goop off the driveway after the armorall'd car drove away, what up with that? Not a real confidence builder. Nasty stuff, that. Years ago I tried something of theirs on my old pickup and promptly ditched it. The product, not the pickup. It gathered dust worse than a 1935 Oklahoma dish towel.

    Ok, finally used some Lexol Leather Cleaner, and followed with some Lexol Leather Conditioner and am really pleased with the result. Thanks for the good advice!

    The seats now have more grip than before the application of that stupid ArmorAll product.

    These 2 products also worked really well on the tan/beige leather seats in the wife's Tahoe. I am a Lexol believer!
