How would you clean leather?

The leather steering wheel on my A4 has got a bti sticky. What have people found the best to clean one without bleaching the colour or leaving a residue?

Use ordinary toilet soap - the stuff you wash your face with - and a

*damp* - not wet - cloth, rinsing it frequently. For stubborn stains use a nail brush. Avoid getting it any more wet than necessary. When dry, use some hide food. Then polish with a clean cloth.

One quick Google search and here's a UK mail order supplier:

The stuff is probably available at your local ice rink.
