How do you keep the matte finish on the steering wheel?

What do you do?

Is a damp warm microfiber cloth enough or should I use an all-purpose cleaner or a leather cleaner?

I use the zaino leather cleaner and it has always stayed like as new with matte finish.

Keep your hands clean and dry and no hand cream.

Mystro got me hooked on Sonax Leather Conditioner, it's excellent and mine has the same matte finish still of course.

Edit: I use a microfiber applicatimor sponge or pad to apply mine

I used BMW leather care kit, and it was really good and worth it, it keeps the matte finish and make the leather feels fresh, it's 19$ on Amazon

Another vote for the Sonax product for your interior - I also swear by their 'leather foam' for the quick cleanups FWIW.. Their alcantera cleaner is my recommendation on that front as well.

For Microfiber towels, these are now the ones I rely on. Gone through 3 or 4 varieties of towel all made by 5 or 6 different companies towels and keep coming back to these.
