Restore Merino Leather?

[mrmojom3]

So I picked up an 08 M6. The previous owner didnt take the best care of the car, but its not too late to get this car back to mint. The leather probably hasnt been cleaned in a year so I plan to do leatherique restore a few times to get it cleaned up.

Any suggestions for the best way to take car of this leather?

I really miss the napa leather from my M3 and my wife's X5, I'm suprised they didnt put napa in the M6? While not a dealbreaker to purchase the car, I'm not a fan of merino vs. napa in the slightest.

a great overall cleaner is woolite diluted 10-1 with water. use that with a leather brush and it should clean it very well. If that doesnt do it you can you a diluted all purpose cleaner but be gentle and do a test spot first. Leatherique is very good i have used it but it the leather is really bad you are going to need to scrub it well to get into all the pours of the leather.

Leatherique works quite well. If the leather is dirty, I have had good results using Griots Interior Cleaner.
