okay i see... don't use coach on car leather.

Thanks!

Kinda late for the RX, but i won't start using it on the IS.

As the leather ages it will get whats called a "patina", meaning it will smooth out and gloss up. This is normal and there's nothing you can do about it except to replace the leather.

I would stop using the Coach products. Coach's products are for handbags made of UNCOATED leather. These things are supposed to have a somewhat glossy appearance. Your RX has COATED leather which means the leather has a thin clearcoat on top of it to protect it. You should use cleaners and conditioners appropriate to automotive leather, the Coach stuff might be making your gloss problem worse.

How do you restore the new feel of the Leather.

I have a 2000 RX300, I just got a new IS250

I realized that my RX leather slowly but surly got shiny and smooth.

What i currently use is Coach Cleaner and Conditioner (for Wife's Bags). The leather on the RX is still nice and soft, but it is shiny and smooth.

How do i get it the new burred texture (if that is the word not shiny, and smooth)

Thanks,

Jerry
