It's been over a year, time to clean the motorcycle. My only problem is the LeatherLyke bags have faded to a nice gray color.
I put a ton of armor all / formula 2001 on them, and it lasts only while wet. It dries off in a day or so and turns gray again.
Anyone have any recomendations? I've got 28k miles and a lot of time in the sun.
another closed thread but they make some stuff i beleived is called leather black

I may be wrong but I seem to remember that the instructions that came with my Leatherlyke bags said not to use products like Armor-all because it encourages discoloring and fading; mild soap and water was the recommendation, I believe. Just FYI...
This is what I have used for many years. It's called Black Again.

Do a web search for Black Again. It should run 7-8 dollars per 8oz bottle plus ship.
I have used something called back to black that worked well, I will check again when I get home. I bought it at Autozone I think. You got to work it in but it does restore the black.
