Leather interior care

What products do you guys use and trust to clean and protect your leather interiors?

I use Meguirs NXT leather care for mine. I only used it once since my truck is soo new, but it seems to work and soften the leather up. I plan on doing the front seats once a month and the back every other month since they are folded up most of the time. Anybody else have any suggestions?

Don't bother doing the back seats. They are not leather; they are vinyl.

Only the seating surface is leather the sides and back are vinyl. I use Lenox leather cleaner and conditioner. I Only use the cleaner when I absolutely have to. I've talked w/ a interior installion guy who says to only use a silicone type conditioner, to protect against UV rays, but I haven't found one in stores. He uses a commercial type conditioner.

The new leathers are clear coated and dont require "oiling" to keep them soft. For a mild cleaner use Woolite and dilute. A good water based silicone emulsion with UV inhibitors should be used for protection. 303 makes a good product. Avoid using harsh cleaners (butyl) and solvent based silicone oil type products. The Meguiars stuff should be ok.
