Does anyone know what is a good cleaner that you can buy for cleaning your leather seat & interior that would take off your leather color? i know some of this cleaner that detailer at the car wash use may take off the color of the leather seat and your seat will be come dark color or black dirty lines and you can clean it, because is not dirt is that they clean your seat and the cleaner they use is so strong it also take off the color too! Anyone know a better and save cleaner to clean your leather seat?

I use Lexol cleaner and conditioner on my car and it works great and restores the wonderful leather smell as well. It's available at most auto parts stores

I use swissvax leather cleaner, then use the swissvax leather conditioner. Works fantastic - best leather product i've ever used. BUT the smell isn't great.

In the two years of life of my car I used to clean my creambeige leather seats with the Detergent Foam of MA-FRA and after the Nutrient ( conditioner), always MA-FRA. I don't know if they are sold also in USA.
The result, about cleaning, saving color and leather sotfness, has been always very good.
Now I'm doing the cleaning with the foam of Meguiar's. It is a little bit better than MA-FRA.
However, many people says the the best detergent is the Marseille soap ( 20% in water)...
