Coral Red Leather Protection
Spend a little while searching around forums to see what the products were and I'm leaning towards ordering me a bottle of Zaino Z-10 to protect my leather. Thoughts? I'm really looking for a matte finish. Don't like the shiny look that some protectors have.
Also heard good things about leatherique as well. Any suggestions are appreciated!

I only use Zaino Z-10/Z-9 combo on my Coral Red leather, makes it soft, clean, and smells awesome :] +1 for Zaino

Is there a shiny finish to it or does it keep the matte look?

I usually apply it by hand after cleaning it then let it bake in the sun :]

You could also consider a transparent coating for your leather.

Think I'll be getting myself the Z9 and Z10 combo and call it a day!

There is nothing to condition, no pores in our leather, etc. Our leather is sealed/clear coated so no conditioner will anything beside degrade the top coat. It just needs to wiped down with a mild soap and water.

Here is a good read. I just keep my leater clean along with the steering wheel (I do not use hand creams so as to keep the leather on the wheel a matt finish) All of my leathers in my cars look brand new and are never "treated"
