Keeping leather car seats in good condition can convince you to purchase some extremely expensive products, since it is a delicate material that can easily get destroyed over time. Today there are many people who recommend the use of olive oil to achieve the same results as with these expensive products.

After washing the leather seats with hot soapy water, rub a small amount of olive oil on the seats to prevent them from drying out and cracking. If there are already cracks, you can apply a greater amount of oil and leave it in to hydrate the leather for three-quarters of an hour. It may not solve the problem in its entirety, but it will make even the worst of cracks appear less deep.
