Just read an interesting article about refinishing seats. SOme of you have talked about Leatherique, etc and some other methods - this article says the leather seats are treated very similarily to the paint on the body. For instance, severe problem areas are sanded to reach good material. Also, the seats being restored are in a 1991 Porsche 911. The leather was painted originally and coated with a clear coat to keep the leather from transferring to your pants. Deep cracks are filled with a filler which is flexible and permanent and lasts for years. The painting must match the original color and is then clear coated. The piping is painted also - by hand much like pin striping.
Anyway, that's the short version. I get this magazine on CD from a frined but it may be 6 months before he sends it to me. But at that time I can probably share it a little easier to anyone interested.
