Hello!

My drivers seat is shiny. I want it back to the matte finish that it had from the factory. Is Liquid Leather the answer to my problem or do I need to sand them or how do I proceed?

Liquid Leather for me.

Yeah 5 minute blast on each panel with a power sander should sort it nicely. No way! :lol: Give them a go with some proper leather cleaner to try and take off any oils etc that have affected the surface. My leather is matte and I find that leather conditioners makes it slightly shiny for a while. However, as yours is already shiny you may find that you'll see an improvement rather than increased shine.

Shiney Leather is usually dirty leather..

The trick to cleaning leather, or anything really is heat, open the pores as such up to allow the dirt to be released.

I find a steam cleaner and microfibre cloth works very well..

Liquid leather leaves a nice matt finish everytime. It's one of the few conditioners that aren't over greasy.

Mine were the same before I gave them a clean with Liquid Leather, did the trick and left a nice matt finish.

Another one for liquid leather. Nice results from an inexpensive product. Use a shoe brush with it to get all the muck out the grain/pores.

Sanding - who on earth recommended doing that!?
