Recommended Steps:

1] Acidifier-2.0 to neutralize all absorbent areas, acidifying the protein leather fibers below its ioselectric point shifting it positive cationic (+), to hydrogen-bond with the anionic (-) leather constituents to stabilize the chemistry integrity of the leather structure from denaturing, that manifest as weakening of the leather structure as seen in pictures.

2] Hydrator-3.3 to relax the leather structure of its unnatrual creases and wrinkles; purging all foreign contamination that has weaken the leather structure. To reduce surface tension as a preconditioner for the effective distribution of the anionic (-) Fatliqior-5.0. Preferably to have an overnight dwell with evaporation control cling wrap.

3] Fatliquor-5.0 to soften the leather with suppleness; a well fatliquored leather as according to tannery practices worldwide should average 14% when the leather is dry to the touch. See video: http://videos.howstuffworks.com/disc...quor-video.htm

4] Impregnator-26 to tighten and strengthen the over-stretch damaged areas; sealing the structure less porous for the Adhesion coating and color coating.

5] Adhesor-73 is to ensure against peeling.

6] Thickener-48 is to be incorporated to the custom pigment Micro-54 at 5 to 10% to control the flow without streaking on vertical panels.

7] The Matching Topcoat Micro-72 with choice of gloss, satin or matte.

8] Non-stick, rub-resistant proctection with a buttery-feel and imparting a classic leather scent - use Scent-B.

Is there a clean & rinse process?

Slot it in as 1A: Prep-7.7 > Cleaner-3.8 > Rinse-3.0.

These damage areas may pose an adhesion problem:

Pull off deterioated pigment coating using a 3M 2" Scotch Tape.
