Leather Conditioning Help

[AquaHawk]

I just got done leather conditioning my first car and didn't charge a ton because it was a relative of mine but, it took me literally 3 1/2 hours to do. Why did it take so long? Is this the normal amount of time it takes. Usually people charge more for Shampooing than conditioning, but far as I'm concerned shampooing is easier. So did I take to long on certain spots or do you just go through it. How do I leather condition correctly?



Thanks.
