BMW Interior Care

Hey guys.

I had owned my car for over a year with 2500 miles on it. I got the extended mirino leather in sakhir orange. On my center piece armrest console, theres like a dry patch on it where i am worried that it will crack. I am looking at the genuine bmw leather care kit from amazon. Have you guys used this? https://www.amazon.com/BMW-leather-c.../dp/B00FPTMLLM

Will this protect my leather from cracking? Also what is the material used on the top piece of the dash board.. Its like a hard plastic leather looking thing. Should i use the bmw leather care product on it? Is there also a chance itll fade or crack overtime? Thanks in advance!

I use the BMW leather care and like it a lot. It leaves a long lasting shine. I use Meguiars interior protectant on the dash and door plastics.

I use and really like the Duragloss 221 Leather Conditioner. It leaves the leather feeling soft and supple. Another benefit is that it is easy to apply and is non greasy and gives a nice satin-like finish on the leather - not a cheap looking shine. I find it a good alternative to the BMW product.

Used BMWs leather product and liked it. Tried Chemical Guys and liked it even more. Same matt initially "squeky" surface but holds better. Smells leather wether you mind.
