trim- (tech protect, spong applicator and microfiber)
leather-(gold class cleaner conditioner, cotton towel)
interior -(tech protect, applicator spong and microfiber)

I regularly go over my rubber weather stripping /moldings (around the doors and trunk) with tire dressing (I use Black Majic) as well as rubber under the car like body mounts and CV boots. To this day my cars have never dry rotted a CV boot and the weather stripping/moulding looks new.

Mytnag2005,

Not sure if you knew it, but there is a whole forum dedicated to the discussion of all those things and more. You should check it out. Good stuff.

Collinite 845 is the BEST wax period, everything else pails in comparison!

I use mothers reflections wax and it works good.

I found that when you use a separate cleaner and then conditioner on the leather that it keeps it like new.
