my old sterring wheel is shot. getting a brand new one installed on monday along with some body work.. what do you guys that have leather use on yours?? and how often do you do it on your steering wheel.. the truck is a 2001 f 150
I have the leather but I put a wheel skin over it. There was a small bur that I kept picking at while driving. A wheelskin will keep you touching the stock leather and transferring your oils/contaminates to the leather which might help longevity.
For the leather, I love Eagle Ottiwa's Tanner's preserve line. The cleaner on a micro fiber rag first to get the dirt out and return it to the original color. Then the leather cream on top and let it sit a few hours before driving again.
You should test any product you use on an inconspicuous spot. However, the brand name leather care products should be just fine. I ran out of Tanners and tried some Meguires, I just don't like the smell of Meguire's products. It seems like it's not harming the seats though. If I can't find more Eagle Ottiwa, I will try Mother's again, I don't remember why I didn't like it.
So much of what I've seen for shoes/boots is colored, even the natural seems to have some color in it. I think you'd be better off hitting a Tack Shop for saddle soap or rein care products, there should be less coloring agents in them.

You are thinking of the polishing products, yeah they have color. I am thinking of the waterproofing agents you can buy, they repel stains, make it easier to clean later and are easy to apply.The tack care products are a good idea, I didn't think of those.
