@Donald, thing is there are plenty of 'bare' areas that need the colour back in them, so I'm probably looking for a black leather treatment.
Google "Colourlock". You basically clean it with solvent, re-dye the worn areas with the appropriate colour. I used black F034 on my knobs & F046 on my seats & steering wheel. (I think!) & finally apply a protector. It's not too shiny, either.

I got mine from Petzoldt's in Germany.

BTW, you can just re-touch the wear-prone bits now & again.
Thanks!
Yeah, I was really looking for a leather treatment/restorer, that is also coloured so that it 'fills in' the scuffs, a bit like colour waxes you get for the car itself.
Exactly - just the edge of the bolster as you can (not!) see here:

Cheers!

That reminds me and I forgot to mention; the skin was badly worn on the sides of my knob, and it's now restored to its normal blackness.
