Leather seat conditioners

I was watching an old 'Wheeler Dealers' the other night. They used an oil and conditioner to clean and restore the seats. Mine could do with that, they're 25 years old now and whilst not in bad nick could do with some TLC.

Can anyone recommend a good kit? The seats are light grey. Some I've looked at on Amazon say they take colour out or add a brown tinge (not good on grey).

Cheers
 
depending where you are I used lady called ruth Leu (ruthleu.org) based in Southampton to come to me and redo both my black front seats. £150 a seat and well worth it. Took her half a day.

 
Have a look at this company https://www.lttleathercare.com. No affiliation, just a satisfied customer. I understand that due to the type of leather on our seats creams, and certainly not oils, should not be used. I have used LTT products successfully since I had seats renovated a few years ago. Lots of useful info on their website & they are happy to give advice.

Have to say I get confused with seat leather care. Some advocate cleaning with a product such as supernatural leather cleaner and then leather sealant afterwards, arguing it’s been "sealed” already by the colour so just need to remove the abrasive dirt. Others advocate conditioners and creams as they say it needs to breathe! I used swiss vax sealant last time but it’s left streak marks on the leather where it ran in places annoyingly!
