Default Cleaner for seats/steering wheel

I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good cleaner for the seats and steering wheel for the 2023 IS350 FSport. Also, is the steering wheel wrapped with real leather or synthetic? Is a conditioner also recommended to protect it?

Thanks!

Does anyone know if the steering wheel is real leather or synthetic?

Not sure but I wipe it down with Leather Armor leather wipes and then I use chemical guys leather spray & brush to give it a matte look

Steering wheel and shift **** are genuine leather. I started using Nextzett Cockpit Premium every 2 weeks on both items and the wheels comes out looking brand new with no sheen from the oils on our skin. Highly recommend it.

For the steering wheel and shift boot, I recommend using a clean towel and warm water once a month, and maybe every few months use some interior detailer to protect it. Honestly, warm water is all you need as long as you are consistent with it.
