You can clean it with a nylon brush and soapy water. Once it's dry, you'll want to apply wax to protect and preserve it- a good one being Renaissance microcrystalline wax. Polish with a thin coat of wax using a natural and short bristled brush. That should keep it properly shiny without ruining the color. Good Luck!!
