Ok its not the Indy Jacket, but my old faithful leather jacket, It got a present of Pecards last night. After reading about the miracle properties of Pecards I found a UK dealer and ordered a tube.
Suffice the say the old friend looks like a new friend now with a great suntan..
It was a very baby kack brown, after 20 years of use abuse and neglect, then a dose of dry cleaners reduced the colour to not a nice hue.
A good 2 hours of applying Pecards, and the difference is amazing, yes it is alot darker, in fact darker then when I originally bought it, but a couple of days of drying out and we will see. Will post pics later, unfortunately I did not get a before as I did not believe it would be that dramatic of a change.]
Pecards is somewhat unbelievable...

It's good stuff, that's a fact. Your jacket will, indeed, lighten up a bit as the hide slowly absorbs the product.
Pecards was created for museums to keep their leather items in their collections hydrated and protected in storage, so it's an inert product and pH balanced. It also lubracates the leather fibers so they can pass by each other as the hide is flexed. This flexing and breakage that causes cracks in leather.
Glad it worked out so well for you.
