Yup got the same only different colour (still light though so same probs).
Manufacturers advised only clean filtered or bottled water wipe down weekly and a mixture useing natural soap flakes like Dreft 3 monthly, but no more frequent then that.
Rinse well with no soap residue left anywhere. Seems to work ok.

Please please please DO NOT use baby wipes.
Wipe down regularly with a damp cloth, apply Protection Cream to help avoid dye transfer and clean with Leather Master Soft or Strong Cleaner. We also have products for dye transfer if this is the specific problem.
Products available from
http://www.LTTsolutions.net
for consumers and trade.
Leather cleaning and repair courses also available

Please do not use baby wipes, one of mine friends did this, her suit ended up cracking and flacking within months, I only damp wipe mine ith a very mild solution of detergent and the wipe with clean damp cloth to remove soap residue and allow to dry before I apply a leather protector and nourisher...

Waterless.
Just had a look (impressive)
When my sofa's need rejuvenating, Ill now know exactly what to use. Looks like its good for plastics and fabrics as well.
Thats quite a universal product that one!
