Leather seat wear mark...what can I do?

The interior of my ss is flawless, save a wear mark on the driver's side left side seat side bolster. Is there some kind of dye I can get to get it black again? Or should I leave it to the pros?

Don't know of any dye that'll help.


I have the same problem with my driver's seat, and I think at some point, I'm going to have "a professional" cover them with a higher grade leather.

I think the leather used by GM in the Camaro's leaves alot to be desired.

Leather, or any material for that matter, gets worn right on the bolster of seats like these in any car. The only long-term fix for it is to keep your a$$ off of it when getting in/out of the car.

Had the same thing happen to me.

I have the same problem with my driver's seat. I usually just apply some saddle soap that is used for leather shoes and keep it moist with that. It conditions the leather and keeps it a little darker and makes it harder to see. It doesn't last a long time so you have to keep applying it. It might help, just my .02.
