Maintaining Alpaca Grey Leather

[Guest vt5sport]

Love this light colour for the interior - kinda gives it a luxurious feel and a nice contrast wif the black dash and surrounds.

But it would obviously require more maintenance. Any tips on how to keep it looking nice and clean?

Weekly clean it with a damp cloth & once a month apply leather care.

Tks. Any particular leather care product to recommend?

My previous cars all had either black or dark grey interior so din realli bother to upkeep much except maybe use cheap-cheap armourall leather cleaner once a blue-moon....haha. But sibei slippery after that so would give that a miss if possible.

Saw the MB one selling for like $40+. Wonder if anyone has used it and is better than, say, something like autoglym leather cleaner.
