Leather Care - 2003 Honda Accord

I just bought an 03 Accord LX with leather seats. This is my first car with leather seats and I'm not familiar with care and maintenance. I noticed a small crack startingin one of the natural creases of the seat surface. Is there a way to maintain the seats to prevent future cracks and is there something I should do to prevent the current cracks from getting worse?

Thanks.

i'm not sure if this is right but it worked for me, all i did was keep it moist by putting some turtle wax on it so the sun doesn't dry it out and i haven't had any cracks yet

Hi, Pepper. Read up on a product called Leatherique...it's probably what you're looking for.

Leatherique or Lexol are both very good, Leatherique being the better of the two. More work, more money but it works. Lexol cleaner and conditioner are more for maintenance.
