I have a 4 spoke leather steering wheel in my 944 S2. It's the original steering wheel and it is in a decent shape: the stitching is (still) perfect and there are no major problems with the leather. The leather just isn't black anymore: on top (because of the sun?) the leather is more brown(ish) than black and where the steering wheel is still black, it is partly shiny and partly dull...
How can I make the steering wheel black again so it'll look nice again?
Any tips and tricks?

It's better to burn out, than to fade away

The Woolies Trim kit is what many professionals use for restoring leather. Www.woolies-trim.co.uk
The website gives full instructions and it works extremely well. We’ve restored some very special cars with it.
