I have heard that modern automotive leathers have an enamel paint on the surface, or some kind of surface, that does not allow any kind of chemical, such as a leather treatment product, to penetrate the surface. If this is the case, we're all wasting our money on any of the many leather treatment products.
I can imagine the surface of a given automotive leather will depend on the manufacturer. I would guess it is more expensive to dye leather all the way through than to paint the surface. If it is dyed all the way through, it may allow leather treatment products to penetrate. But if painted, it may not allow them "entrance".
Does anyone know?
