Cleaning and protecting designo leather
I bought a new car with white designo leather. In the past I have always preferred leather masters cleaner and protection cream.
I've been reading about designo leather and it seems it may be analine or semi analine. Leather masters warns against using its regular products on analine. In the past I've just had coated leathers.
I'm thinking it should be fine. I'm guessing that designo is semi analine and not full analine, meaning there is a thin coating and leathermasters should be good.
It would be great to hear from some folks that have designo leather interiors.

I dont know squat about different leather types... but I used leather cleaner#conditionner once on my design leather and it turned out horrible... patchy and glossy looking. I ended up cleaning it with regular lightly soaped water and a rag to get it back to the matte OEM look. now I just clean it with humid cloth.

Update
I did end up doing an online chat with the makers of Leather Masters. Most of their products were safe for analine leather. I just wanted to be sure I was not using the wrong stuff. Anyway... I am clean and protected!
Not to shill for Leather Masters, but it is the best. If you are using something else, research "Leather Masters by Uniters".

I've been using Leatherique on my mystic red Designo leather and my sand beige Porsche interior. Works great on both.
