Degreasing:
The darkening effect on headrest and hand rest body contact areas are caused by body oil, grease and sweat and these are penetrated due to the absorbency of the aniline leathers.
What causes #7 backrest to have such a darkening effect is yet to be established with a comparison check with hidden areas.
However, degreasing is done with Degreaser-2.2 (pH 2.2) both degreasing and bleeding control at the same time follows by Rinse-3.0

Structural Restorative Cleaning:
This wet process is to even out the overall appearance in preparation for color refinishing and may involved with lots of hydrating to bring out the foreign contamination.

Dryness and Fading:
Structural dryness is rejuvenated through hydrating and fatliquor replenishing thereafter; while color lost from sun fading is reactivated simultaneously through hydrating as well.

Wax Pull-up Fashion Effect:
This feature is to be determine with a close-up inspection and if confirmed; rejuvenating is done with Wax Effect-8.6

Color Refinishing:
This is done with “transparent” aniline dyestuff (Aniline Dye-21) either by staining or coating with the help of Adhesor-73 for an even appearance.
Since dyestuff is transparent any color stains or blemishes that is darker than the desired colored will show through; this however can be overcome with shading the color with black to camouflage the blemishes.

Topcoat Sealing:
This is done with aniline Topcoat-79G, gloss to bring out the beauty of the leather.

Non-Stick, Rub-Resistant Protection:
This is done with regular protecting it with Protection-B+.

The above is a general sequence of process for both structural and surface restoration.

Assuming there are no surface damages, and not a pull-up then the recommended kits that fit would be Aniline Kit A6.dr with a add-on black for shading the red brown.
