Leather vs vinyl

["Kate Triplett" <ad_ablurr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If it's leather, is will be much more absorbent  than vinyl - try a bit of 
leather treatment, either a lotion/balm type or simply a bit of soapy (NOT 
detergent!) water - vinyl is nearly impervious unless it's so dry as to be 
inflexible. Leather in any condition will continue to absorb and rehydrate 
until it is flabby with moisture.

Is there any good (solvent?) test to verify where leather trim ends and vinyl
begins? Some of these vinyls are hard to tell from leather.
