Try this one!

I use Dri-Clean by Simoniz or by Holts. It works on Leather, Vinyl and carpets. So Dashboard, seats, and door panels can all be cleaned by it.

I spray it onto the seat and use a soft brush to gently rub off the dirt then use a clean cloth to wipe it all off. It works well but don't over use it or brush really hard as you risk wearing off the leather's color sooner. MB leather is not so durable these days! Lastly I apply some Leather conditioner (non-shine versions by Simoniz) just to protect the leather from easily picking up dirt plus it feels soft and supple when you sit in the car. The leather always looks showroom new once I'm done.

Light greys like yours and javas like mine show dirt very quickly. Whereas with Black you would only need to clean it once or twice a year and all is okay. Might have to get a black interior next time as I'm getting tired of keeping the Java clean.

But what about the dye transfer from the denim??? Those other cleaners are fine for everyday soil and sweat.

Jeans are a tough one...but

The Simoniz and Holts Dri-clean removes the Blueish Jean dye that some of my Jeans leave behind. I use a toothbrush over the affected area. I spray directly onto the tooth brush then scrub the area then wipe off immediately without letting it dry on the chair!

Though I can't be sure that it will remove all types of Jean dye.
