 | Leather Question What (if any) do you guys use on your leathers to protect them from the elements? I have been cleaning my jacket as I go b/c all the bugs/road grime make a mess and a half. A small bottle with a water/soap mix and a paper towel to spot clean do the trick but is there anything I can put on to protect it? | |

| Re: Leather Question I like Lexol. Just don't soak the stitching with it. I put some on a towel and give it at light application about once a year. |

| Re: Leather Question Lexol conditioner/cleaners for the outside. About once a year I throw them in the washing machine to clean the insides. |
