Don't use saddle soap. Reading up that it is the wrong thing.
Looking on the net I'm going to try olive oil and vinegar to clean my seats and other leather bits.
Looking at a ways to clean and fix the leather in the shituar on the cheap.

Don't use saddle soap. Reading up that it is the wrong thing.
Any particular reason?
I have a huge tub of budget stuff I use for boots and wellies, and then a a little bit of poncy Saphire stuff I keep for best shoes.
In the past for leather trousers I've just used moisturising gentle hand soap and light olive oil. Note for the oil you're only using the smallest amount

That looks ace.
Luckily this is just for the steering wheel and shifter.
I think as a first fix I'm going to carefully used some saddle soap and then a conditioner to see what that does. Logic being; a) it's in my cupboard, b) is realistic giving my childcare requirements, c) it shouldn't prohibit doing a better job later if required.
