The small California Duster for the interior is one of the best products I've purchased.

I didn't read all the posts here (too lazy) but essentially the best way to get rid of wrinkles is to not let them occur in the first place. And the best way to do that is really simple, keep the seats slippery. Not greasy but wipe them down every week with a decent conditioner and leather care cream. It takes a whole 2 minutes and in the long run, it will keep the seats looking good.

I think the wrinkles gives the seats character.

I've always been under the understanding that a small posterior results in the seats wearing better.

I use pinnacle black label on mine. It does a pretty good job.

Well, I guess the bottom line is, you need to take care of your seats just as you would take care of washing and waxing the paint. This is the first vehicle I've owned with leather. So I'm a novice for sure. But It did make sense to me right from the get-go to take care of the leather. I did however, wait too long initially, to actually clean the seats. That's because I had no experience with it or knew what to use. One day I really took notice of the drivers seat cushion, of how it starting to look a little dark and dingy. The edge of the seat had a few minor "Surface?" creases, and the perforation near the front edge had been wrinkling. Probably from my Massiveness. Once I did some research then I attempted it and said to myself "Self, why did you wait so long to do this?" A lot of it was fear, not wanting to destroy the leather. The only thing I really did for the seats for the first two years was to vacuum them along with the interior, and then use a damp cloth to wipe them down, dry them, then used those wipes to try and protect them. Now I know better what to do. So the future looks nice and bright for my seats......

I haven't tried out chemical guys yet but I've been a fan of the Wolfgang line. So far all of their products are amazing.
