**Step-by-Step Guide**

**Step 1**: Choose the application method: you can proceed by hand or spray, so you can use a sponge for hand application or a spray gun.

**Step 2**: Apply a thin layer of paint over the leather surface, in a uniform way and using quick movement.

**Step 3**: Let the leather gloss finish dry completely, it should need about 10 minutes depending on the environmental condition. Once dried you'll see a natural shininess on the leather surface.

**Step 4**: If you want to get the leather surface more glossy you can repeat the leather gloss finish application or you can polish the surface using a cotton cloth. The second option is recommended if you want a natural gloss.
