I'm using the Sonus kit at the moment. Its easy to use with great results and comes with an applicator. I've used Autoglym products in the past but find the Sonus kit far more superior.

I use this stuff on mine on the advice of my detailer;

It doesn't strip away at the leather like some and keeps it looking natural and matt, not shiny & slippery like some i've tried in the past. Also worked a treat on my old leather couch at home

I've found baby wipes to be the best i've used by far for cleaning up soiled lighter coloured trims

I have been using Zymol leather cleaner for years.

If you have the standard Dakota leather....is it worth the effort?

The leather is plastic coated.....or so I was led to believe.
It will make it smell nice but does it feed the leather?....probably not.

Unless you know otherwise.

What do you think?

This applies to pretty much all modern leather as it's coated. As a consequence some swear by diluted APC, other prefer to use the various leather cleaning solutions.
On light colour leather the various barriers/stain blocks are well worth using.

I use Dr Leather wipes. There cleaner is supposed to be quite good as well.
