Steamer for wrinkled seats?
I've heard that a fabric steamer will help to correct/minimize wrinkles in leather seats.
Is this true? Is there a process for using one that works for the best results?
If so, that would be a lot cheaper than buying new skins for my C5...

Tried the microwave drill on my C5, at my detail with very mediocre results. A customer and I tried it on their Lexus and there was a very slight improvement.
One thing I noticed is the seats are all that bad to begin with.
Seat that are very wrinkled, may have the clear coat cracked and this technique won't work.
I also have two steamers, and on really bad wrinkles, they really don't help.
