2008 Interior (HELP!!!)
I need some suggestions about what products you are using to clean your dash, carpets, floormats, and seats. It's very hard to keep the tan interior clean especially the carpets and mats.

Seats and Dash… Use a leather conditioner. I rub it in with a Latex glove on. (If you use a towel it will absorb the conditioner.) You want the leather to absorb the conditions otherwise over time the leather will crack as it dries out. Let it sit (about 30 min.) and then buff it with terry cloth. The leather should have a soft fill to it when you are done. I do this to all of the leather in my cars and I have never had any of the leather crack.
I would not use saddle soap, it strips the cooler.
Brand names? Don’t use the cheap stuff.
Everyone has a way of doing this... but this is what I like and I am sure you will find a way that works for you.
Good Luck

There is a paint store in my area that provides detailing supplies to body shops and dealerships. I get a leather cleaner and a conditioner to clean mine. I spray the cleaner on the leather and wipe off, you can use a very soft brush to lightly scrub if you have a mark. After I do that i use a conditioner and apply it with a pad most would use to apply wax to the outside of the vehicle. I then let that soak in. I never get any wrinkles in the leather.
