I'm not sure I'm in the right forum for this but it seemed like the most appropriate. I'm currently in the process of reconditioning my armrest. I was using Mike2003ZHP's steering wheel refinishing DIY as a guide but I've read many others that suggest using a leather sealant to fill cracks. After sanding there is a noticeable improvement even before applying dye but I think to truly realize excellent results I'm going to require a sealant or filler. Can anyone with firsthand experience suggest a product? I've looked at numerous DIY's around the net that suggest basically whatever filler you find at the local auto parts store and I've looked at Amazon but I can't find anything I'm sure is the right product for what I'm doing. The cracks in the armrest are VERY minor and are VERY fine after light sanding but I want to make sure I have the right product to smooth them completely before dying. Can anyone suggest a product?
I'm attaching a pic. The armrest is still a little moist from being wiped down after sanding, hence the appearance of discoloration at the worn area. However, the very minor remnants of racking are visible.
