I was just given a set of leathers that are basically brand new (2000ish) and the previous owner has a sun airbrushed on the back of it and I was wondering what route should I take to remove it? Not a big fan of the sun on the leathers, I like plain and boring, less standing out.

I have had a measure of success using olive oil (extra virgin) on a clean rag and a lot of gentle rubbing. Keep the rag moist and rotate to a clean section as needed. It will take some time, but the olive oil will not damage the leather. Give yourself a few days and think of it like a process similar to tattoo removal- it will fade a litle bit at a time.
Let me know how it works, I goofed up the logo on my Bonnie's seat and this method worked wonders for me.
I read about this on a website regarding stain removal.

Good luck!
