03 Accord Leather? Looks crappy now
So I have an 03 Honda accord and my black leather has been looking pretty crappy since about 04... It sorta likes like its spider webbing out on the sides of the seats. I don't understand what causes this because I've been using leather conditioner every couple months since the day I purchased the car. Has anyone else had similar issues? I'm not to thrilled with the leather quality.

pretty sure its from the leather conditioner. once you start using it, you cant ever stop and if i remember right, is actually harmful to the leather.
my black leather in my 03 still looks perfect.

mine is gray, but it looks new still. I know what you are talking about and most cars over 3-4 years old that I see do have that spider-webbing you are talking about.

Not all conditioners are created equal.... as a matter of fact some are downright harmful, all they do is shine the leather.

What brand are you using?
What procedure to clean and apply are you using?
Do you have tint to protect from UV?
Thanks for taking the time to answer these questions...
I use LEXOL cleaner and conditioner. I clean about every 6 months with the Lexol cleaner and than apply the lexol conditioner.
you?
