I'm quite lazy so I wanted something that would be very quick and easy, so last week i picked up a canister of Meguiars Leather Wipes. Its a canister of 25 ready-to-use wipes. No discoloration on my charcoal leather, although for several hours after application it did dry kind of unevenly, but the following morning it looked great.It wasnt exactly shiny, it just looked very nice, more like i remember it looking new. I also used the wipes on the dashboard and glovecompartment area, and it worked very well for that.

i wiped the interior down with meguires as well but the way it dried up annoyed me coz there were patches.. so what i ended up doing was taking a damp cloth and just wiping the seats and dash down to get rid of the spots... so i guess all i use is a damp cloth

jy2010851 - what color is your interior.. i have a charcoal as wel, so you can hardly see anyting on it

Lexol

I use Lexol cleaner then the Lexol conditioner on mine. It works really well I think. If your even more pressed for time then use Tannery. Spray it on wipe it off. I have had a hard time finding Tannery there is only one grocery store that carries it so when I find it I usually purchase every can on the shelf. Lexol should be pretty easy to find. Good luck

a great way to clean and mosturize leather is to take a wash-cloth wet it and ring it out till it is damp and and get a bar of DOVE soap. rub the soap into the wash cloth (not alot but just enough to get some of it on the wash cloth) and rub it over your seats. I did this on my Camaro and I do it now on all of our other MB's. It works great and it leaves your leather sooo soft and smooth. And the Dove bar is scent-less so there is now smell to put up with afterwards. It works really well.

Lexol works well on my leather seats. Keeps them subtle and no shine.

Most of the MB cleaning products are re-packaged Meguiars products.
