Yeah, I may try behind the headrest or something like that, but you think just the cleaner will leave it shinier?

Gliptone leaves more of a matte finish??

So, I bought both the cleaner and conditioner separate.

Did a couple inconspicuous spots and saw some dirt coming up, and I decided to do both seats. Tough to see a difference. Only used the cleaner, photos are just cleaner no conditioner. Wasn't completely satisfied so decided to wait until I get my gliptone cleaner in before using the conditioner.

The Gliptone won't make the leather shiny, but if it's already shiny, it won't make it matte, either. But, a lot of times the shine can be from oil and other chemicals already on the leather, so the cleaner should help with that.
