How often to clean/condition seats
Hi guys. I have a SC430 with Ecru Leather. I was wondering how often can you clean/condition your seats with products like Lexol Leather Cleaner or Zaino Z-9? I've heard every 6 weeks or so, is this correct? Is this just for the conditioner only, or the cleaner too? Well if so, what other products could I use to clean the seats weekly? Cleaning every 6 weeks seems like a long time, I would imagine them getting pretty dirty. What could I do to keep them clean in between? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Also, would I be able to use the leather cleaner/conditioners on the center console and doors?

For my ES, I use Meguiar's Rich leather cleaner/conditioner (all in one bottle), and I do the leather job once every 2-3 weeks. I have ivory leather, so the dirt/dust is more easily shown than on black leather. Ecru leather is much lighter than the ivory, but if you keep up with the leather cleaning task (doing it once every 2-3 weeks), your leather will last a long time, and you won't have to exert much effort in future cleanings.
For any places that contain vinyl or synthetic leather, I use Vinylex (a fine product made by Lexol). It polishes, shines and protects those areas from harmful UV rays and dust residuals. I highly recommend it to maintain the look on your dashboard and the top parts of your doors

About every 2 weeks using the greatest leather products known to man...IMO 
. Duragloss 221 conditioner, 441 cleaner. Pick it up at any local NAPA. I would highly recommend it over the "gluey" all in one leather products
PS. Always apply leather conditioner with hand, let it sit for 30 - 60 minutes, wipe off with cotton rag
