Is there a way to get the leather seats back to their original look? Now my seats are kind of shiny, and I really dont like it. Can I get them back to that dull, new look?

Thanks,
John

 

Mod: can you delete this thread, or lock it? Found another place to post in that I forgot about!!

Thanks

(edit from wanabe: i am going to leave this here cause its a good question!)

 

john- which leather cleaner are you using?
a good leather cleaner should get rid of that shine-
either townsends or lexol's cleaners should do the trick.

then finish them off with a good preservative, but dont use too much and dont use more than one coat (to prevent the shiny look).

 

Thanks Wanabe! Can I get the Townsend or Lexol anywhere locally, or do both have to be ordered online?

Anything I should use to get the existing products off the leather?

Also, I have Suede S2000 logos on the seats, will either of these products be harmful to it, or is it not a big deal?

 

here you go:

lexol products:

(you can buy lexol locally usually- some honda dealers even carry it)

townsend products:

i would be very careful with the suede... read the labels carefully and test a small area before using on the entire logo. i have not used either of these on suede.
