Default issues: cleaning leather in my 07

I've got grey interior in my car. I've given it a quick 'go over' every so often but today I'm going to town on it. I started using Meguiars leather and vinyl cleaner with a shammy. Switched over to 'awesome' cleaner with a brush. Scrubbed it like crazy, then wiped it over with Meguiars ND a shammy again, ND my rag was completely grey. Idk if this is from the seat's grey or the dirt/ scum from the seat. This is a real bitch to clean! I hear Gg simple green is good any suggestions?

^ does that mean you can't get the Lexol locally? I get the Lexol right from Advanced Auto.

I'll look into it. Is it like a leather shampoo?

You need a leather cleaner and conditioner, like Tom V said Lexol is very good. Be careful of harsh chemicals, they'll dry that leather out and it will start to wear and crack.
