I have had great success using some mild soap and H2O to get the nasty off. Then when dry, I use Meguiar's Gold Class Cleaner-Conditioner. Non greasy, easy application and helps prevent aging & fading with it's UV protectant.

How do I keep from filling the zillion holes poked in the front of my jacket?

Spray lemon pledge onto a rag and wipe down the jacket. Cleans it well and leaves a lemony scent to the jacket.

I was given a bottle of doc baileys leather care years ago by my ex father in law. Stuff is amazing, he's been riding since he was a kid and all his leathers looked amazing. He had a vest his father had bought in the early 40's that a few years ago he still wore and you'd swear it was a brand new vest. I've never used anything but the black formula, but my icon regulator looks brand new and its been through rain, hail, being dropped, and generally if we're at a big cruise or something i throw it over the tank and it bakes in the sun. nice and soft and dark black!!
Actually doing the vest today since the weathers crappy!

Saddle soap to clean it then then a coat of sno-seal to condition and make it water proof. Brough back a corbin bike seat that had spent 5 summers inthe SC sun, looks like new.
