I'm looking for leather conditioning products in particular. I know there's a lot of testimonies on this forum for Zaino Z10 conditioner but I was wondering there were any for Show Car's?

I'd love to support a site vendor first before anyplace else.

Not sure about anything else but "Hawaiian Island Shine" and "Surf City Garage" products. I use both and they're incredible.

Well, Showcar's wheel and tire cleaner was very impressive so i wouldn't hesitate to recommend the rest of their products if you want to support a FRF vendor who supports this forum :waytogo:

At the risk of sounding stupid (ya, that would be a first:shocked:).....I asked this in another thread, but no one answered (yet)......are you guys sure the leather is not clear-coated? Can't find info on the web but, looking in the Owner's guide, leather seats are separated into King Ranch and "everything else". If the Raptor fits into the later, then the seats are probably clear-coated. If that's the case, oil/petroleum-based leather conditioners and cleaners are a definite no-no [pg. 366 of the 2011 Owner's Guide, Dec. 2010 version]. Don't know if any of the suggestions made so far fit that bill, but maybe that's partly responsible for the cracking leather thread??? Don't know.

If it's clear-coated (my 02 F150 FX4 Lariat, for example), a damp cloth (water) or some type of mild, water-based detergent does trick (I use Pinnacle Vinyl and Leather cleaner).....have to make sure, though, that you don't leave any detergent residue on the seats. I sometimes followed that with some 303 Protectant, but you have to be careful with it, or your a$$ will slide right off the seat!
The Raptor seats, though, can be a royal PIA since the seating surface is not entirely leather.

Not sure if this helps, just thought I'd throw it out there.

Ernie, I've never heard of leather being clear coated but thank you for sharing that info.

Badrap, the Nav screen... I'd assume just use a nice microfiber cloth and maybe a dab of rubbing alcohol to get the greasy fingerprints.
