Do you have any suggestions for reviving hides that were stored incorrectly? I received them folded over on themselves. Are the creases permanent? Thanks.

Thanks @William Duffy. We'll definitely pose your question to Aaron!

I'd like to know what Aaron's views are on steaming leather to get rid of wrinkles. It's been discussed a couple of times on this forum and the opinions seem to go from "I steam the heck out of every cover I make" to "I would never steam any leather cover".
Personally I use steam very carefully, but I have had leather which reacts badly to it in the past, and I'd not go anywhere near perforated leather with a steamer. I know some manufacturers steam their seats on the production line.
I'd be interested to know his thoughts.

That's a great question @Dean McConnell. I've always been taught that you never steam leather, but I see trimmers do it all the time on Facebook and IG. We'll pose the question to Aaron and put the debate to rest once and for all. Thanks!

@William Duffy Aaron just answered to your question on how to remove creases from folded leather. To see his answer, click here: How do I Remove Creases from Leather?

Thanks for submitting your question!

@Dean McConnell Thanks for your question. Steaming leather is also something I've long wondered about. Will get this question over to Aaron ASAP.

Is it true that all automotive leather is matte? And how to take care of car leather so that it does not become glossy over time? Thanks
