Step 1
Clean the surface of the leather with a soft cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol. This will remove any grease, oil or previous coating from the leather, preparing it for a new top coat to protect the leather from sun exposure and scratching. You can rub along the gain of the leather or go against it, and rub gently.
Step 2
Spray the entire leather piece with spray acrylic lacquer. Use a formula designed for use on furniture and leather. Spray the lacquer in short bursts. Do not soak the leather. Spray a thin coating on the leather, then allow it to dry for about two hours. Spray a second coating of lacquer over the first. Allow the leather to dry overnight. Apply one final coat and dry overnight for ultimate protection.
Step 3
Place a small amount of leather conditioning cream onto a soft cloth. Rub the cream all over the leather to buff the leather to a high shine and remove any remaining scuffs. This will replace the top coat and restore the leather to its original shine and quality without damaging the leather.
Step 4
Allow the leather to soak up the conditioner overnight, then apply a second coat the next day. Allow the leather to dry overnight again, then wipe away any excess conditioner with a soft cloth.
