So what's the best recommendation for keeping the seat and passenger rails clean and removal of scuff marks?
Does anyone use saddle soap or is there a better option?

Lexol leather cleaner and preservative. Okay for BLACK. If you use it on the tan seat--it will darken--sometimes unevenly.

Saddle soap over time will rot the stitching--not recommended.

I do not recommend armour all basic--it makes the seat so slippery you can be launched off.

Armour all for leather seats--or vinyl is also a good one.

The Dr. Black (or something like that) looks good for about a month--but fades in the sun.

I gave up on the seat. Ran into the same problem as the rest of you. I wipe it down.... Does the seat tend to grey in the sun? I go from garage to road to garage do I don't see a lot of exposure.

I tried stuff for the rails and it made it slick.... So it went the way of the seat 😊

I use Pledge on my vinyl covered seat, cleans it well, not slippery.

Lemon Pledge is kind of like the "utility infielder" of baseball; quite useful at almost everything, not not quite great at any ONE thing...
I use it... :thumbup:

I would recommend a good vinyl cleaner for the seat, hand rails don't know...
