    Best conditioner and dressing for BMW interior?

    I guess I`m more accustomed to leather in Japanese cars that are coated (Lexus and Infiniti), that when I tried to condition the leather in a BMW, it streaked and looked splotchy. The plastic is also different. American Shine`s plastic dressing seemed to work well on the plastic, but just wondering what is the preferred conditioner and dressing.

    For the leather in my BMW, I used 4*`s leather cleaner and conditioner , I love the new leather smell left by the conditioner, for the rest of the interior (dash etc), I use poorboy`s Natural Look. I use a damp yellow foam applicator to apply the conditioner and I don`t get any streak or patchy spots cause by uneven application. Hope that helps

    Four Star is a great product, but I have used PB NL on my tan colored leather and it worked really well and makes the leather have a bit of a shine

    Thanks for the advice, I tried a leather conditioner from Malco and that didn`t seem to work too well.

    I really like 4* Leather cleaner gel, and the Leather conditioner. I use them every once in a while for a thorough cleaning/conditioning. For all the times in-between, I also use Poorboy`s Natural Look.

    I`ll also agree with the recommendations for 4* Ultimate Leather Conditioner on leather and Poorboy`s Natural Look for vinyl. Those are the products that I use on the interior of my BMW 330xi. My seats are covered with a coated leather which doesn`t react well to many dressings. Some leave an oily feeling while others feel way too slippery.

    My thoughts exactly. When I picked up the car, it looked like the interior needed some major conditioning, but when I tried to apply a dressing or conditioner, it didn`t change the appearance much. Perhaps the interior is supposed to have the matte look to it.
