leatherique only cleans/protect. It doesn't restore the leather finish
Sorry, but you're wrong.
The most common Leatherique product is the two part cleaner, but if you go to the link I included, you'll see that their actual claim to fame is car leather repairs and dyes.
I've used their dyes on an old Jaguar and the repair was nearly invisible.
Leatherique does make dyes but their website is even worse than leatherworldtech.com I couldn't see any images of the products. But hey given how good their leather cleaner/conditioners are their dyes are probably excellent.

yes, their website is awful. I wonder where they found a copy of Netscape to build the site.
"Video review of covers for the Lexus LC 460. We consider covers on the version of the cabin with monitors. Patterns are on other versions of the cabin. For example, eco-leather covers with rhombuses and logo embroidery. A set of car covers is complemented by a pair of seed pillow"
My 2011 GX460 has Ecru seats color.
A hand size area has lost its color. No other damage.
How do I restore the color ?
I tried one company that specializes in restoring leather color on Lexus and other vehicles as so stated on the website, and asked about Ecru color restore and they responded, and I quote "what is Ecru" and send us a sample swatch.
Not wanting to cut into my seats, so I decided to not respond nicely. They specialize in Lexus but do not know what Ecru color is ?????
I recently purchased a pre-owned 2016 Lexus GX 460. The car is fabulous with minor wear for the year with the exception of a damaged area to the leather in the rear passenger seat. The previous owner transported her grandchild and although she reportedly covered the seat with a cargo blanket, there is a very noticeable place where the leather appears worn. I would appreciate suggestions on how to repair the damage. I originally thought it was a stain but it appears the leather dye has wore off. Just not sure what to do about it. Thank you.
I would try a leather repair shop. I did a quick google search for "automotive leather repair" and a few shops near me came up. They should be able to dye the area and make it much less noticeable.
I would first try cleaning it yourself. Do you have a steamer? Heating the leather is excellent to release dirt and stains. I suggest using a steamer if you have one. If not heat a wet wash cloth or similar until quite hot - microwave. Spray the area with a good leather cleaner and lay the cloth on the leather to let it heat it up for a few min. Don't use a cleaner / conditioner combo. Thoroughly clean with a leather brush and the cleaner.

I believe the leather dye has been worn away from a car seat but I am not certain. Can anyone tell from the picture or has ever seen this happen? If so, how do I repair it?
