Is anyone using the Paul Moss leather technique, if so how are they getting on with it?

Any ruined sofas and law suites pending or good results and making a few extra quid?

Must be 6 months now so if anything bad was going to happen I am guessing it would have happened by now!

Could have been a spider, I am boring and the internet has been a Godsend to git like me.

Was hoping it would have produced an answer though oddly enough, I think it was a reasonable request to liven up my boring existence on this dull Saturday night on the computer.

Paul recommended using the micro sponges to clean leather, it was thought to be a bit controversial by some leather training companies because it had not been properly tested so the cumulative results of constant use might have caused damage.

I've used it with excellent results, the key is to keep the sponges well wet/lubricated.

We can still prove that his method causes damage to the finish on the leather and should not be used for cleaning.  It has its place in the restoration process when you know that you are going to refinish but is not safe to use as a cleaning process. 
Leather should be cleaned gently wtihout any aggressive processes and products should do the work giving extra dwell time if necessary.
