Meguiers gold class leather cleaner/conditioner. Works great, but apply liberally. I use it about once a month on the mom-mobile and it works great. Plus it smells really good...

I tried the Mequiars leather wipes and won't use those again. It left the seats too slippery . I have sinced switched to the Mequiars leather foam & Zaino Z-10 . The Zaino has a nice smell to it and doesn't leave the seats all greasy/slippery .

Black lines means it'* moisturized. A colour lighter than the colour of your interior [like for you, a lighter tan] means it'* dry. And there is nothing you can do. Once you get them, you can't get rid of them. However, if you work hard at moisturizing them and whatnot, they'll feel so good, it won't matter.

I've never used those on seats, but I do like the way they work on my dash.
