One conditioner or dressing for both vinyl and leather?

[TerryJ]

I'm a new genesis owner. Spent some time conditioning my interior last weekend. I found it somewhat time consuming to use two seperate products to condition the leather and vinyl seperately. Not to mention trying to keep one off the other when they are in close proximity on dash and doors.

Does anyone know of a high quality conditioner or dressing that is considered safe and appropriate on both leather and vinyl? When I actually check the labels of all the obvious products they are all very specific to either leather or vinyl but not both.

Currently I use STP vinyl dressing; old school I know! On the leather I use Lexol leather conditioner. I like both products but would love to find a product that does both for doors and dash.

I've been real impressed with some of the members detailing knowledge based on posts in this detailing section.

Any suggestions?

I personally use lexol for seats and no issues even of sides are vinyl..... I do however have a question ..... Have you conditioned the doors or dash leather with lexol ? Any change in look or aging ? Those are the only areas I just use a duster and have not conditioned yet.

I can't respond to the question in terms of aging as it's a relatively new car, manufactured in july 2013 and sold to first owner mid september. I've only had the car for a month now.

The leather on dash and doors looks better than it did than when I got it. I didn't clean the leather first as it didn't really need it. For whatever it's worth the lexol didn't change the color of my saddle colored leather whatsoever. I also did the seats and it's not greasy at all. I do buff it half hour or so after application to remove any excess.

Amongst the detailing "experts" I've gotten the impression Lexol is one of the top five leather conditioners available and probably the best product available at your average corner auto parts store.

Thanks for your interest!

Check out either chemical guys and/or groit's garage. Seems they have one product for both materials.

I spoke with a leather repair shop that specializes in high end cars-mostly driver side leather repair such as bolsters etc, and the owner recommended a little Woolite mixed with water. I tried it and it seemed to be very effective.
