leather care questions?
Basically I have two questions:

what's the best cleaner?

and what's the best way to care for it?

hopefully there are some detail kings around here....

I also bought Lexol (both cleaner and conditioner) for my TL with parchment (what was I thinking). I definately don't think the cleaner works well, at least for lighter leather colors. Do you guys know of any other products that cleans the leather really well?

I've been told a solution of one part Woolite and six parts water is the best way to clean leather. I tried it a few days ago and it worked great. Go figure.

But definitely Lexol for the conditioning part. And when using the Woolite/water solution, just use a damp cloth and wipe the surface.

Yep - Woolite (A gentle detergent) and Lexol. Can't be beat!
