I've seen a LOT of grammar and spelling mistakes on this site and others, but never... never... NEVER did I ever expect to see somebody misspell fricking shoe! Maybe on the Spongebob website, or maybe the Barney website I could understand, but jesus!

To answer your question: Try an interior protectant first. Armor All or one of a million different similar brands.

I have one of the earlier leather wrapped wheels, and it's starting to fade, and get all those white marks in it. You think leather conditioner will bring this back to life? Do you think shoe polish on this will rub off?

Oh, to answer your question, "back to black" by Mother's works awesome. It gives black painted trim a nice, even, semigloss black color.
