So little by little i'm trying to get my truck real clean. The one thing about the interior is it's leather. It's in pretty decent shape with the exception that it's absolutely filthy coming from a farm. what's the safest product to use? I've read on here mr clean magic eraser as well as scrubbing bubbles w/o bleach. How bout 409 or some sort of grease cutter.

Obviously it will need a conditioner immediately afterward, but i would still like to know what other people have used that will not hurt the leather.

Thanks
 






Bon Ami cleanser (for sinks, etc- it is non abrasive), a spray bottle with some water to keep the Bon Ami "moist" and a toothbrush/not too agressive brush- works amazing... :)

You can also mix some Bon Ami in the spray bottle and ust it that way. Just wipe it off aand follow with a damp clean cloth, then condition with a good conditioner.

You need to get the dirt out of the grain before using covers, sprays, or conditioners.
 






My sister use the Armor All for Leather on the seats in her Galant, made it look damn nice.
 






There is a better product to use on the market now and I use it exclusively. Here is an example of it's work. Comes in both a cleaner and a conditioner. Great stuff... Use Zaino's Leather in a Bottle. Best I ever found...

Seats after cleaning and conditioning. I used a soft toothbrush with the cleaner.
