i would try the townsends leather cleaner and follow it up with their leather preservative-

gonna need some elbow grease with that cleaner!

You shouldn't use soap and water to clean leather. It's probably doing more harm than good. You want a dedicated leather cleaner + conditioner for this. I use zaino's leather in a bottle (cleaner and conditioner) and it works great. There's also lexol brand stuff, and townsend brand. Look around this forum a bit, there are LOTS of leather threads.

for my experience with Townsend's. Check out a couple pics I posted of my GF's leather-wrapped steering wheel here...

The "strong" cleaner you are looking for will most likely strip the finish right off the seat along with the dirt, stick with something you are familiar with and it will be better for you in the long run.
