Default what do people use as an alternative to Lexol

I like lexol for the dash, but Im looking for some thing to use on the seats. Lexol makes them real slipery, and seems tho bring out their "cheezyness". I have heard good things about harley and pinnacle. Can anyone comment on either of these?

Default Harly Polyguard, use on dash as well.

Love it on the dash. On my ECRU leatherette it hasn't removed some tough stops I had hoped it will however. But as a general cleaner, it works nicely.

Default I've been using 303 aerospace protectant mixed 50/50 with water on the dash...

You might want to try diluting the lexol a bit and see how that works. Should respond similarly to the 303, less shiny and greasy looking.

Default I use Vinylex only for the tires. I've found it's too greasy to use insde the car. I like 303

Aerospace on the dash and other vinly stuff. For the seats, I use Lexol Leather Cleaner/Conditioner.
