I had tons of scratches on my leather jacket, I just used conditioner and they were all gone, must work the same on the seats. I use conditioner for my jacket on the car.

Well as for the little white spots, show me a picture, I am not exactly sure what they are...this product only fills in where the finish has been taken off, so if the finish is gone, then it should work, if it is something on the surface, we would have to see, it is still possible, but if someone can post a pic that would be a huge help.

BobbyB...The black leather is not inherently as deep as the Berlina on the exterior because in order to produce a matte or dull finish on the leather, they top coat it with the duller and it tends to grey everything out...hence not the deep black. It is the dulling agent itself that does this, which is why you won't see much, if any very deep matte/dull black leather...

WING...your conditioner works on the jacket because that leather is an unfinished or aniline type, which means that there is no protective coating on the surface, the leather in most cars in finished or protected leather. When there is no finish, the conditioner can more easily absorb into the leather, thus getting rid of the scratches. As for our cars, it won't work well in the long term although it may darken out the scratch fairly well until it dries or quickly wears off. The rub-in product is a more permanent solution to this type of issue.

I'll see if I can snap a pic of the white spots. It will be difficult to transmit because they are so small - almost like overspray, but they show up one or two at a time and are stubborn as heck to remove.

Right now I've got a few on the steering wheel that I keep looking at when I get behind the wheel.

Thanks,
Hockey
