Cleaning Interior

Hi,

What's everyone using to clean the leather interior in the Pepper?

I've used the Mothers leather conditioner for years and like the beach smell, but I'm wondering if it's any good for the cayenne interior.

??

I use Lexol cleaner and conditioner for leather interior bits on my other cars. However, I've been hesitant to use the conditioner on the 955, due to the slight darkening that the conditioner can cause. --mine has the Havana beige leather. (w/ black or gray, I wouldn't hesitate)

+1 on the Lexol. I used their cleaner and conditioner on my Caramel interior on my M5 and didn't have any darkening issues, of course, it isn't as light as the Havana beige.

I use the Lexol cleaner and have been using it since I purchased my Cayenne years ago.
It was recommended to me by a friend or I probably would never have found it.
You shouldn't be too worried about the darkening, I was worried about that myself (Okay, I have the gray leather), but it has shown to have no effect over the years.

..the conditioner, not the cleaner, is the concern.

I recently used a bit of Pine Sol mixed with warm water in a spray bottle. Spray conservatively on the seats and scrub with a nylon bristle brush. It really works out the dirt. I also used the Lexol conditioner on the grey interior with very good results.

I get Lexol products from a nearby feed store. The prices aren't too bad. No shipping costs either. My sister gets her Lexol stuff from Amazon.
