Current completed stages
As you can see from the pictures, I was able to remove the deep creases
Stripping (The Reset): Applied Saphir Reno'Mat using microfiber rags. Stripped until the leather was "matted" and porous.
*Letting them sit for 12 hours... I will come back to them tomorrow and evaluate if they need more stripping.
Next steps
Re-Hydration: Applying a light coat of Saphir conditioner, than allowing 24 hours for lipid penetration to prevent "dye-shock" (cracking).
