Which product do you use to easily lift the dirt embedded in the seat so it comes back close to new?
As far as I know, never ever soap and water again.

That tends to dry the leather.

Clean Leather

Use a clean microfiber cloth with JUST WATER and rub as much of the staining off as you can. Then use "Saddle Soap" to finish the cleaning process. After that smear "Bag Balm" over the entire surface of the seats and allow to soak overnight (Longer is better) and buff off with a new clean microfiber cloth.
