Default Cleaning leather wrapped steering wheel

Over the past couple of weeks, I've been debating about how to clean my leather wrapped steering wheel. I don't like greasy leather, so using some sort of leather cleaner/conditioner wasn't an option.

Twice now, what I've done is use a damp chamois and give it a good wipe down. Following that, I've let it dry for about half an hour, then give it another good wipe with a clean microfiber to give it a final dry and collect any left over dirt/dust that may be on the wheel itself.

Pretty happy with the results. The leather stays in it's original matte finish, without any greasy/shiny residues.

Thought I would share this with you all! Cheers.

I do the same as well to the seats. I still have the flat black look.
