I use this product at work all the time . if you get the right color it will come some really nice ,i have tried it on many GM and European cars. you just need to make sure your leather is really clean and if you have and rips or creases to fill them in.

Sem worked great
I have the tan interior with cracks and a hole on the driver's seat bolster. I studied the application procedure on their website: http://semproducts.com/cms/Training+...To%27s/94.html
I used Color Coat even though its recommended for Vinyl because other users were very pleased with the result. The color I used was "Light Neutral" and matched perfectly. You must put repeated light coats, about five minutes apart to build up the area. Wait for the gloss to turn flat and respray. If you spray too much you get runs. The bolster where the cracks were looks like new! The hole is bumpy but covered. I plan on sanding the bumpy area and reapplying. I masked at the seams and its hard to see any difference between old and new.
I put this off for months because I wasn't sure. Also did the crack on the driver's window seal. The color is "Monterey" which was a perfect match. That didn't work as well. I'll try that again. Then I'll tackle the steering wheel.
Cost at the local auto paint store was $11.46 for each aerosol can of Leather Prep, Light Neutral, and Monterrey. With tax = $37 dirt cheap!
