Cleaner: Zaino Z-9 Leather Soft Spray Cleaner
Conditioner: Zaino Z-10 Leather in a Bottle

I've used both with great results. The cleaner works on just about anything, not just leather.

I use the entire lineup of Zaino. I've used it for over 5+ years and it's done wonders for all my cars. Especially my Obsidian Blk F.

I hope this doesn't turn into Zaino vs Brand X discussion.

I think Zaino products are good, but not great. There's too much hype in their "sealant"...which eventually breaks down like any other wax on the market.

Check the maintenance forum for LOTS of good information on how to maintain Lexus's sealed leather.

And if your wife gets chewing gum all over her butt leaning up against a plant container at the airport then unknowingly sits in the passenger's seat, Goo-Gone will get it completely removed. AMHIK.
