Just like it says

What do you use on it if anything?

I picked up some Turtle Wax Luxe Leather

Wondering what else is out there

Works great IMO. Leaves a slight, semi-glossy shine, but it can be knocked down a little from that if you use a lightly dampened microfiber towel. I just clean with a gentle scrub of soap/water 99% of the time. Good thing is it's available in a lot of places. It's not a cleaner, per se, so there's that. YMMV.

I also use some Z9 from Zaino for cleaning vinyl/leather when I have it, followed up with Z10 protectant if I have that. It's just not available in stores. Z10 for leather (the non-microsuede stuff).

For microsuede leather or alcantara, I use Dr. Beasley's microsuede cleanser and a light touch with a soft toothbrush.

The turtle wax stuff works pretty well for vinyl too, just seems a bit too runny for me. JMO.

I started using the Poorboys line of products a few years ago and I like what I have used so far.
Their Trim Restore works real nice;

Ironically I was told by an older detail guy to use diluted Ru-Glyde. Yes the stuff used to mount tires. I've used it for years after it was recommended due to the original dash in my black 79 began to crack at the center speaker. When I replaced the cracked dash years later with the one from my El Camino the dash did not crack any farther.
Just my $.02

Bob,
Where do find Ru-Glyde...and what would you dilute it with?
