Default New owner 09 King Ranch

I am new around here so if this is covered somewhere else sorry, I did a search here but didn't get a hit. I recently traded a 08 xlt for a 09 kr which I am very happy with same 5.4 engine but better mpg with 331 gears. The truck is in pretty good shape but my question is about the leather, it's not bad but has some scuffs and I would like to improved it and keep it nice. I see that it has been sprayed with something before because there is some over spray on safety belt holder. They really aren't bad but I would like to get them looking their best and protect them. What is a proven method and product to restore that leather, I think it is called chapperal? Thanks, Robert.

I have a 09 too and I'm about to re dye my front seats with this:

Someone else on her did a write up of it and it worked great. Can seem to find it though.

Try Zaino leather soft spray and leather in a bottle. The cleaner really does wonders with the leather and the leather in a bottle (leather conditioner). Best stuff I've ever used. Goes on milky, but dries with no greasy residue.

Check them out at www.zainostore.com

You need lexol or the King Ranch leather conditioner... Nothing else... Either one will bring the luster back

I've only used the King Ranch brand, wear gloves without a cloth so the seats get it all

Use the King Ranch leather conditioner. Get it from your local Ford dealer. But remember the seats have scars and marks in them because they are cow hide but also it gives them character. I kind of like the worn look of them. But the conditioner definently makes it look better. Also! Get a sunshade and close your moonroof if you park outside. Over time your seats will fade because of the sun. Good Luck!

^^^^Correct^^^ Definitely use a sun shade... It will help deflect some of the heat and keeps the seats from drying out.... Gloves is a must... Massage it into the leather... I use a damp cloth to clean the seats first...
