Default 2009 Rx-350 AWD interior cleaner

Have a 2009 Rx-350 AWD [117K]....looking for suggestions on what product to use to clean/protect leather interior...have been using Armor All but was recently told by a body shop owner that this product [due to petroleum] will dry out leather....can anyone verify and/or offer a substitute product....thanks for your help.

I've known people who swear by saddle soap/conditioner for any type of leather, especially vehicle leather. I'll be getting some when I have time to really give my interior a thorough cleaning.

Usually for leather I use the Lexol kit, cleaner and conditioner. Works real good and keeps leather in good shape, not a fan of Armor All it attracts too much dust even on plastic surfaces. But since Weathertech isn't far from me, I might try their leather kits soon.

I know meguiars makes some great leather cleaners and conditioners for cleaning and protecting. They are not the cheapest thing around but with good reason as they are very good quality. Ive used some of meguiars stuff before(spray protectant of some sort; dont remember exactly what it was called but that was for the exterior but they make great stuff all the way around.)

lexol is supposed to be pretty good stuff too. My brother has used that on his 2015 bmw 428i interior with pretty good results.

I have used Lexie and Meguairs. Both good products. But lately I used Meguairs since I can get them at Walmart.
