I ordered Angelus leather paint and finisher with the understanding that I could refurbish a leather gear knob and steering wheel. I followed the whole preparation process meticulously, applied the leather paint, followed by the finisher. So the first disappointment was that the finisher didn't match the description, with the result was that it was far too glossy. I contacted Angelus and they advised that I used their matt finisher, which I duly purchased and used. Applying this basically wrecked the finish further, and provided what I can only describe as a terrible finish. I provided feedback to Angelus directly after the initial complaint with the person proposing to send a sample of the matt finish but this never arrived and I'm left with what is now a damaged steering wheel and gear knob after a few months, plus having spent more money. I'm writing this now, several months on, as I am extremely disappointed after spending good money on a product that just did not work, and coupled with that, it is also wearing off and creating an even worse finish. I'm not sure how I will now try to restore the items, but I will have to spend even more time and money to achieve what I want, and what I understood could be achieved with the Angelus product. A warning to others before suffering the same experience as myself. On top of the product, I would say that the customer service was also somewhat disappointing.
