I use the MB leather cleaner spray once every 1-2 months. Works very well. Avail at C&C at abt $40/can. Then condition it wif Autoglym Leather Conditioner. So far my Alpaca grey a.k.a "white seats" still looking very clean & new.

an easier, more convinient and cheaper way is to use Nivea cream... use a moist towel, put nivea cream and apply on leather ... thats it... then wipe dry after a bit... does wonders and at a fraction of the price

Weekly use damp cloth to clean the leather & once a month use cheapo brand Waxco brand with do. Need not spend a bomb to maintain the leather.

Thank you Gurus for the replies. Will prob try a dose of the MB cleaner for a start

I got a can of the MB leather cleaner with my service credits when I collected the car. Use it once a month. So far so good. In between, I clean the leather with an almost dry microfibre cloth whenever I can.

If the car is parked under the hot sun, I will suggest you "polish" your leather more. Loving care to your leather seats will ensure that they look at its best for a long time. There are many products out there, and the Mercedes leather car products don't cost much more than those in the market. So depends on how deep your pockets are, invest in a product to pamper the leather.

Hi Mate, give it a go... try Nivea on a small are of the leather and see the difference... besides, at the price you pay for a small tin of Nivea, you can condition your leather so many times..
