Cleaning TexLeather Wrap

[luv1pocket]

What does everyone use to clean a textured leather wrap? I've had this for about a year from Mueller and it has lost a little bit of the shine. I think it's embossed if that matters.
Is ArmorAll what works best?

armor all will make it very slippery as it contains silicone, i wouldn't use it. i've been using products from lexol very successfully on leather. they make a leather cleaner and a conditioner.

You might also consider using black paste-type show polish, like Meltonian or similar on the wrap pictured in your photo. Make sure you buff well so there will be no blackening of the shooters hand! This should help resore some luster.

I use armor all. Wipe it a few times before use. Wipeit in then wipe it in an hour let it set overnight then wipe it next day. It works best

Another vote for Lexol. It came recommended to me by motorcycle racers, guys whose life depends on well maintained leathers. I use it on my jackets, car seats, cue case and all my leather wraps. The conditioner won't give you a high gloss like the silicone products (Armor-All etc.), but it won't make your grip slippery either. I just know it's good stuff to clean and preserve any leather, and it's available locally at any good hardware store or shoemaker.

Saddle soap them mink oil.

That's the right answer!! You can even use a weak solution of mild detergent (ie: Ivory Liquid) to clean with. Then use a small amount of the mink oil (I like the paste form) to seal the leather. Leaves a clean smooth surface and preserves the leather. JMHO

PS... I hate Armor All
