Re: Color fade/wear on arm
If this is a finished leather than the repair would be to repaint it. If a pure aniline leather than it would be re-dyed. Yours looks like a finished hide.
Cleaning kits are for maintenance, they won’t restore damaged leather. Yes, regular maintenance goes a long ways to prevent that from occurring,
Leather creams generally don’t work well on furniture as it transfers to your clothing.
Re: Color fade/wear on arm
So what’s the best way to minimize this wearing? And what type of leather looks best over the long run? The pure aniline leather? Thx for all the help!
