Somewhat unrelated, but figured this would probably be the best place to get some help. Have some white leather that is... no longer white. A bit of yellow, almost looks like coffee or bug guts. Tried Lexol Cleaner, with no luck. Any other recs on what to use? Don`t want anything that will damage / dry the leather in any way. Any help is appreciated.

On white, Woolite. 1 ounce for 4 gallons of water :yo:

It sounds as though the pigment has been damaged by the sun and has actually changed colour. If this is the case then it is unlikely that cleaning will rectify the problem and you will need to recolour the leather. As long as the leather is in good condition then this would not be a problem.
