Soften Leather

[oscargrouch]

What's the best way to take the tacky shine off of a leather wrap to make it softer and less sticky? Not sure if there's any substance on the leather (it's relatively new) that's making it tacky. Kind of assuming it's just how shiny/burnished it is. Would like it to be a little softer and not get annoying in the humidity.

Thanks.

The real solution is to choose a new wrap you like and have it installed. There’s no telling what your wrap is made of or coated with. All leathers have a “temper” or degree of soft/ hard-firm. Leather conditioners won’t alter that. If the leather has a coating, the conditioner will not penetrate anyway. I hope this information is helpful.
