Leather Care/Repair

Had a 'WTF' moment this weekend while doing a bit of interior cleaning. The leather on both sides of the passenger seat has discoloration as shown in the attached photo. My guess is someone's jacket must've rubbed the leather as its in the same exact spot on both sides? Anyone have any thoughts on what might've caused it and what I could do to treat it? Any product recommendations or would this require a professional hand?

Swissvax Leather Care Kit would most likely fix this. Although somewhat pricey, definitely worth it IMO. Here's a few pics of before/after's on my M6GC. No dye was used - simply their 2 step clean & condition process.

That's good stuff. The seats went from brown to black! Appreciate the recommendation.

You must be healthy and careful getting in and out. My age is creeping up on me and I'm not able to be as careful sliding in and out....

Leatherique is one of the best out there for leathee reconditioning/care. Initially you cant touch it for about 24hrs but when buffing out you get a fantastic result. I use nothing else when truly reconditioning.
