What are you guys/gals using to protect and keep your leather parts like headbands and ear pads looking fresh and new ? A wet microfiber is great for vinyl, but leather requires a little more attention.
I had good results with Tana Mink Oil and it does a very good job, does not rub off like shoe polish and is non greasy, sticky or smudges, just apply and wait 5 minutes and it look good as new. From experience certain leather care oil products will cause leatherettes(PLeather) to crack after several years and those quick polishes with sponges are actually water/arcylic based which is not good for fine leather. I used to use a leather cream from Turtle Wax, it was the best stuff, but I cant find them locally anymore.
