I use damp (w/ water) microfiber towels and scrub lightly and it brightens and cleans the leather. I then let the seats dry completly and then useLexolleather conditioner. I'm a real believer in microfiber towels. I'm sure like many of you have thought that microfiber really didn't make a difference but now I use them all the time. I also just use a damp microfiber towel to wipe down the interior and then a dryone to shine up the console and dashgauges.

Used lexol and works great for a good cleaning. After that I used meguiars all in one cleaner/conditioner spray works fairly well for a good and easy 1 coat application. But if really dirty definitly recommend lexol or even gliptone which is really good.

I always thought something as simple as a damp cloth would do it. I may have to give that a try. Then condition of course.

Bought the Meguiars Leather Cleaner and Conditioner in a pump type bottle, It conditioned it pretty well, but my seats look as if no one has ever even wiped them off.. Kinda sucks! But Im not trying to impress just keep a nice daily driver.

Update... I used the damp cloth with water and a tiny bit of soap (I mean tiny) and dried it immediately after I wiped the seat. It worked perfectly no problems at all. I then put a coating of the Lexol conditioner afterward and the seats look GREAT!
