Cleaning leather interior

[Jtr]

I have the black and cattle brown interior and while I found a few threads with some recommendations on cleaning and conditioning, I was wondering if you guys had any input or suggestions on products to steer clear of or positively recommend. I have seen positive reviews on the chemical guys leather cleaner and conditioner system but I also have seen a couple of reviews that it does not do well with tan or orangish leather. In fact one review indicated that the orangish/tan leather was ruined by the product. I have also seen positive reviews on lexol too. Of course, Ram suggests mild soap and water but that does not seem like a proper long term solution to avoid fading and discoloration that the sun and general use will cause.

Also would like to know as well.

Especially for leather seats in Laramie. Not sure if they are genuine leather or synthetic leather.

"NATURA PLUS LEATHER" Natura seems to indicate a chemical free tanning process.
Still poking around for information...

Saddle soap is about as mild as you are going to get, try it on an inconspicuous spot...

That's an interesting suggestion. However, I would be concerned with the alkalinity with that type of soap on whatever was used to seal the leather and the leather itself. A lot of the modern day cleaners impress on their PH balanced formula for this reason.

There is a great detailing forum over on tundra solutions. Several professionals are contributing members. I'm sure there are several others as well...
