I have acquired a secondhand jacket of leather-and-suede patchwork in reds and blacks. It's in excellent shape -- leather is supple and seams are all intact -- but it could use some cleaning (nothing major, just the sort of grime that comes around cuffs and corners with routine wear). I know nothing about cleaning leather, and I also know both red and black dyes are prone to bleeding, running, and other ills. What's the safest way to get this cleaned? If I take it to a cleaners, is there a particular specialty treatment I should look for? If I do it myself, is there a particular product or approach that would be best?
