I did a test spot on my seat and it did the same thing as the picture. I stopped there and went no further. I am trying to find a leather place here in town now that can give me some guidance on how to condition the seats. Steering wheel did the same thing when I used a combination of products for leather. Everyone be carefull when using anything and try a spot because it is upsetting to mess stuff up like that!
