Yes! I usually apply a leather conditioner after cleaning. It keeps the seats soft and prevents cracking.
Also, make sure to avoid direct sunlight on your seats. UV rays can really damage leather over time, leading to fading.
So true! I usually use sun shades when parked to minimize sun exposure.

I’ve heard that vinegar can be beneficial for cleaning leather, but I’ve always been cautious. Is it safe?
Vinegar can be harsh on leather. It’s best to stick with products specifically designed for leather care, in my opinion.
