I had a spare surround and read aabout the india / leather creme solution. I went to Michaels craft store and bought some inida ink, its in the calligraphy sction if anyone else needs it, it took me forever to find it. The bottles were tiny, so i bought 2, but 1 small bottle would probably do 10 cars. I guess i did about a dozen coats of the india ink on the extra steering column surround that came with my car. It was in really bad shape, looks like something was ripping on it the whole time where it was stored. First i cleaned it with warm soapy water and a soft green pad, then i wet sanded it with 600, then 1500, let it dry, did all the coats of india ink, rubbed it with a clean rag, and it was almost perfect, a few of the drip spots were still showing through, there were some big stains on there. So i did 1 light coat of the leather polish creme, and buffed that, and it looks brand new. Heres the middle and after, forgot to take a picture of the before.
