I want to distress my authentic lambskin raider jacket. Espically the seams and take a little color out of it to give it that faded worn look. what is the easiest way to accomplish this.

I believe MK has a tutorial for doing just that.

Yeah look at MKs site, use sandpaper on the seams, and wipe acetone on with paper towels to remove color....

yup. just make sure you do this in the reverse order, or you'll be wiping around color on untreated leather which will soak in the excess color while you're acetoning and make it impossible to age.
