    Yes. Makes them nice and black again. Even beads water. Lasts a decent amount of time, around 10 months ago was the last time I had applied it. I clean it well first, then use Eraser, then apply the product and a few minutes later I wipe off excess.

    You put a leather cream over the Gyeon leather coating?

    Interesting might have to give it a try. Is it similar to Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant or no? I tried WETS on it and it didn't look great.

    Actually yes, if it’s not the exact same product it’s really similar.
    Perhaps yours was too faded already when you tried? On mine I’ve used this since the car was brand new and have always had good results.
    You can probably try solution finish if you actually need to restore, then protect with WETS

    Could be. They don't look too bad though. And not that it means much necessarily but it's a 17 and only had 13k on it. In theory it shouldn't be too had but of course you never know.

    Maybe I'll give it a go again another time.

    Thanks!

    Clean it really well first.
    Yesterday I parked next to a mk7.5 so either 18 or 19 and it looked all grey and stained. My 17 looked way nicer

    Yeah I did. APC followed by an IPA but maybe I'll do like 2 or 3 rounds of cleaning just to make sure.

    On smooth trim or rubber I use McKee’s paint prep polish to clean/restore the original look. Just put a littl on a low nap MF and go to town. I will top with PNS or a trim sealant.
