    Do you want any info on any products other than those listed?

    Four Star Leather Conditioner $1.12/oz.
    That`s the current price for the Polycharged version.
    I have used the previous non polycharged version for 5 or 6 years and have been happy with it.

    FWIW, I have no idea what the benefit of polycharging a leather conditioner would be.

    Other options is fine. I have Connoly`s Hide Care and Pinnacle Leather Cleaner & Conditioner. I was just thinking of trying something else and selected those options from Detail City`s offerings.

    I like Poorboys Leather Stuff. I applied it by hand 2 weeks ago and the smell still lingers.

    How about the DuraGloss leather conditioner? You should be able to get that locally.

    Looks to be under 1.00 an oz.

    The 4* leather products are very good but the best ones I`ve used are Zaino.

    Re: Leather Conditioner Preference

    Out of that list I like Poorboys Leather stuff, but I also like the Zymol leather cleaner and conditioner.

    Is this the product?: Four Star Ultimate Leather Conditioner.

    I agree, I wonder what is up with the "polycharger"? Is that like "New and improved"? I`ve not tried any 4 Star products so perhaps this could be my opportunity! At $1.12 an oz, it`s on the higher end.

    +1 for the pre-polychaged version.

    I wasn`t aware that the formulation had been "polycharged", and I too question the benefits. Maybe someone can chime in with an explanation.

    The only other product from your list I`m familiar with is Lexol. It has also been a good performer.

    Yes, that`s the current product.
    What I have and use is the previous version that did not have the Polycharger added.
    I have been very happy with it and the 2000 GTP with a little over 60,000 miles on it still looks great inside.
    One thing I consider very important with leather is to clean and treat it regularly. I never let it get dirty so the cleaning is easy and I don`t have to scrub at the leather. Never use a brush, just a cotton terry towel.
    Since the GTP has coated leather, I also use 303 on it once in a while to help preserve the vinyl coating. It may not be the right way and it might be overkill, but it has worked pretty good for close to 8 years.

    Remember that the DC discount of 10% will reduce that cost.
    You probably should try the Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection when you order.

    It was my product of choice for several years. I have never used a slicker product. That was also prior to the polycharger being added. Should be even better now.

    Re: Leather Conditioner Preference

    Leather stuff gets my vote. It softens well, picks up dirt and residue and like Joy said, it has a great long lasting leather scent.

    One thing about the Leather Stuff. It is a cleaner and conditioner in one.
    Some will like that, some won`t.

    Re: Leather Conditioner Preference

    Such choices! I have many PB products and they are always good so it is tempting to get the PB Leather Stuff. But I`ve not tried any 4 Star products. I really should just stick with the Connelly`s Hide care I have, but I`m a sucker for trying new stuff. And Detail City has that sale on until the end of the month....
