You could also use car shampoo.
Saddle soap works quite well and has the merit of being salt free.
As this is a groaners corner, may I add a small groan? I am new to the forum but can't find a thread to introduce myself. After a gap of some 30 years, I have just bought myself another Austin 7 a 1933 RP saloon. I live in Bala, Gwynedd, which appears to be a bit of a no-man's land when it comes to Austin 7 clubs. The nearest ones are 70 miles away which makes a return trip a long way in a Seven, especially this weather on 'TocH' headlamps.
