Meguiars leather cleaner. The secret is to work it in good with your fingers one section at a time. Then wipe with a cloth. You can also use a soft brush as well.

I use mild soapy water and a rag to wash, then follow up with Lexol or MacGuire's leather conditioner.

Just regular old dishwashing soap, but it's more hot water than soap.

Saddle soap works really well too, DONT laugh you guys. If you are looking for something to just oil your seats to keep them from craking use peanut oil. just a light coating & use only the Light stuff.

I use Meguires right now, although when I get the TA out here to D.C., I'm switching to Zaino. I was in a buddy's car once that uses Leather in a Bottle and WOW!!! I almost conditioned his seats with my drool

I have a buddy that insists upon putting Armor all shine on his seats. He uses it on his tires also.

I do the soapy water then Meguires
