If your leather is pristine, but dry, do not use just a cleaner/
conditioner; go with a leather restoration product first. I learned this
once the hard way.
See http://www.leatherique.com/ for descriptions of one popular brand of
leather restoration products. Same or similar are also carried by Bill
Hirsch, etc...
See http://www.ferrariclub.com/faq/leathercare.html for a 3rd party
assessment of these newer options versus the old standby Connolly Hide Food.
The "wax buildup" described in the Ferrari FAQ that occurs with some
conditioners has another downside in that it will create a film on the
windows during very hot weather. I found the more I cared for my seats
during the hot Texas summers, the more I had to wash the insides of my car
windows.
