Lexol Leather Cleaner works well on my Oyster seats. It's a spray, and you use a damp rag. Less than $10 per bottle on Amazon.

Leatherique is great. When used with a small brush to build up lather and then wipe off. Leaves a nice matte finish.

I used griots garage interior cleaner is the best to wipe off jean marks on white interior but it will clean everything and after you probably have to put some leather protectant

I have oyster perforated leather and use the Leatherique, dip the boar's hair brush into the solution and tap off the excess ( i use a small bowl) then start use circular motions on the leather to build up a lather. The reduces the amount of liquid that could get into the perforations.

check out the Ammo NYC videos....he is a master detailer.

It's the lather that cleans the seats!

Whatever brand you choose make sure you use a cleaner and build up the lather with a protection cream and conditioner!
