My leather on my 2005 Pilot EX-L is beginning to crack slightly and i was wondering if there is any way to kinda "revive" them to looking new again???
Thanks |

Sure,
You should clean the leather and condition it from time to time. I try to get out there a few times a year at least. I have used Lexol Cleaner and their Conditioner and have been happy with the results. There are other products out there as well.
Do a search on Leather and you'll probably dig up a few threads where cleaning the seats has been discussed. |

| I'm conditioning my leather with Maguiar's products and am wondering if the whole seat is leather or are parts leather, like the perforated section, and some parts vinyl? |

Only the seating surfaces are leather. The sides, back and headrests are vinyl. This is true of all but the MOST expensive luxury cars. |

| The entire third row is vinyl. |

Just finished cleaning / conditioning my exl w/ Maguiar's Gold Class. Leather feels soft, but not sticky. Is there a cure time for these conditioners? We have a car seat that needs to go back in.
Also, is it necessary to condition the vinyl 3rd row? |

Hi -
The products mentioned, such as zaino, meguires, lexol - they all - I believe - contain petroleum products.
I've found out about something called leatherique that is a natural product with collagen in it that actually absorbs into the leather and might help in your case.
it is at leatherique.com
I'm planning on ordering a gallon and splitting it up if there is any interest on this board. |

What's a good product to use to protect the parts of the seat that aren't leather (vinyl).
Thanks |
