What it does is dries out leather and break down the protection (new leathers for the most part are sealed from the factory, but not all). For leather stick with a quality conditioner. Now you can use a water based dressing that doesn't create such a greenhouse effect and is less shiny (or more shiny just remember it reflects in the windshield more) while blocking UV such as this: http://www.chemicalguys.com/ProductD...ode=TVD_201_16.
I have found armor-all to be good at reconditioning rubber that is not exposed to sunlight such as the door seals. Even helps to keep them from sticking shut in the winter.
Thank you for the info.

I have learned a lot from this guy, he gives good tips for the DIY and professional. I have used some of his products and they are excellent but there are cheaper alternatives that are as good as his.
