I use Armor all Leather wipes, they work great, I used them on my 96's leather as well, and at 92k they still looked good.

Thumbs down

leather on our cars is crap.i had my bolsters replaced under warranty no questions asked.serv. mngr. said he never saw anything like that before.dye came off as i was cleaning them.GM is well aware of this defect and should fix it as long as its still under your new car warranty.keep conditioner on it is all you can do.

The leather isn't very good and seems worse on the camaros.My tas were not bad I have a 99 with low km but I use zaino leather treatment on it and it looks perfect still.I just bought a 96 vert and it has the wear marks on the seats ,not ripped though so think will try to get this upholstery guy to just color the seat.
There are better quality aftermarket seat replacements availiable and think all four were under a 1000 US.

Armor all is actually very bad. I suggest you use 303 aerospace protectant and you can find it on boat supply stores. 303 aerospace is the best leather/vinyl protectant you can get.
