If you are just after a cleaner, try a dilute solution of Woolite (5 - 10%). Spray on, scrub with a terrycloth towell or wash cloth, then rinse with water and apply a conditioner. I prefer Zaino`s Leather in a Bottle (Z-10); 303`s protectant is also a good choice, but doesn`t have that new leather scent.

If you are looking for a general light duty leather cleaner, I agree Woolite is pretty good. Also Turtle Wax Leather Cleaner and Conditoner is a good product that does just as advertised, but keep in mind it is a very light cleaner.



For the very dirty leathers I have had good results with APC, and if need be *very lightly* scrubbing with a magic eraser (try a small spot first).



My "go to" is usually diluted woolite and a horsehair brush. The brush seems to foam up the solution and lift the dirt off the surface and I just wipe it up with a MF. I really want a steamer though.



For dressing the leather I have been using Optimum Protectant on all plastics and leather. Very economical when it is $35/gal. and leaves a nice silky, satin sheen.



here`s a brush similar to what I have
