Re: IML: Leather seats

[Chris Hawkins <imperial1966@xxxxxxxxx>]

For touching up cracks in the surface color of
leather, another method other than shoe polish - which
can wear off on your khakis - is to use a lacquer
spray paint the same color as the leather.  Spray a
small amount of paint into the cap to form a pool and
use a very fine tip artist brush to apply the paint
only into the cracks.  The porous leather in the crack
will suck in the paint pigment for a long-term repair.
