Sound like you need Mr Clean

Use a Mr Clean eraser on the blue jeans marks. Get the plain white ones without the rough side. Thoroughly saturate the Mr Clean eraser with water. Gently rub the stain until it disappears, then stop immediately.

The leather can handle the eraser, but like clearcoat you want don't want to wear it out, so the next time there is a stain you can erase it again.

Dry thoroughly with a cotton or microfiber towel and then apply the leather cleaner conditioner you bought.

This is how I clean my leather in my Dove Gray interior on my e36 M3 that has the Nappa Leather.

Good luck.

What works on your leather isn't going to work on the rest of the stuff, and vice versa. For the leather, use a leather cleaner and then a conditioner (There's a great thread floating around here somewhere on leather care) and for the other stuff a spray detailer and microfiber should work. Fabrics such as your headliner can be done with a slightly damp microfiber cloth, but don't soak it or you might get mildew.

You may want to grab some Leatherique. Tough product to beat, and it will absolutely pay for itself with Cream leather.

For the plastic and wood, 303 Aerospace is great stuff. It has UV protection and makes plastics look new, not dressed.

I have not had any color transfer issues with my Creme Beige Interior. Not from jeans or any kinds of pants. The only difference I can think of is that the E93 leather is supposed to have some kind of coating to help keep it cool. Maybe that same coating is providing some protection against this? My only issue is the dirt introduced into the cabin by having the top down.

I use leather cleaners and conditioners on my seats. Cleans the dirt off nicely.

I've recently cleane blue jeans stains from my beige leather with the BMW leather cleaner/conditioner. It did a pretty good job. I couldn't tell if it cleaned it or not immediately but I noticed a difference the next day. I guess it took a while fo it to bleach away or something.

I've also heard that Leather Master is a good product.
