How does everyone clean or protect their C.E. leather seats? Some say NOT to use any sort of leather protection...They can actually cause more cracks in the leather. Some say seat covers rub and fall off during use and ofetn cause more harm than good. I just installed new mounted seat covers, so I'm trying to get the most life out of them.
Any feedback would really be appreciated.

Ok if you want some facts about any seat covers and a person on any seat. It's like the same as time does to anything. The seats will have cracks and rub what ever you put on them. All you can do is to slow this process up. Any leather protector will help. Just use what you think will do the job. I use Mequire's leather cleaner and protector for shows. While I drive my vette I use a towel and rap it around tieing it up so it doesn't fall or move much. Most of all I don't put anything in my back pocket to puncher the leather seats.

If your worried about keeping the new ones looking good how about purchasing two seats and use one for shows. Just a thought.

Hope this helps out your question.

I purchased Zaino Z-9 cleaner and the Z-10 for protection. Products smell like leather and have had good reviews on the forums.
You're right time and use will always show creases in seats. I'm currently using cotton tan seat covers, but they move around...I don't think the seat covers rubbing on the leather cause wear. They do help block the sun's fading effects a bit. The original seats have worn equally, so I don't think I'd use the new driver side one for shows...I'd hate to keep removing them after each show. But, it remains a possibility.
Many thanks for the response.
