The leather seat bases in my car are a little too shiny when compared to the rest of the seat. Is there a product or cleaning process to give them back the original dull finish?

Is it modern leather or older leather?

If it's modern leather then Dr Leather (in wipes or spray on) from Tim at Envy Valeting.

If it's older leather then Gliptone or Furniture Clinic.

(looking at your garage it's modern leather, go with the Dr Leather http://www.envyvaleting.co.uk/products_info.asp?id... (wipes) http://www.envyvaleting.co.uk/products_info.asp?id... (spray))

Ooooops, I totally forgot about this thread with all the fun and games around Christmas.

Although I haven't had a chance to use them yet due to the vile weather, I bought a pack of Dr Leather wipes so I'll report back with the results.
