Gyeon LeatherShield left high spots

I applied the O2 LeatherShield to the steering wheel and other places and there are high spots that don't seem to go away after 24 hours. According to the manual, I applied a little more to these spots to make them disappear but they are still there. I also tried cleaning them with the O2 LeatherCleaner to no avail. Any suggestions?

Buff it out. Grab a microfiber cloth and rub away the excess coating (it will take some effort). Next time do a thinner coat, it shouldn't look this glossy after application.

Yeah, you definitely either let is sit too long, or used too much, or a combination of both.

Looks like it was applied to heavy. I've used it on my M4 and wife's X7 and it came out great. Try using some Isopropyl alcohol on a microfiber or maybe Gyeon heavy duty leather cleaner. Then apply another coat. Should be ok. Good luck!!!

looks like you didnt wipe off soon enough...
take Colourlock Strong Leather Cleaner and their leather brush and work it in sections GENTLY, then take a damp towel and wipe off, I think that is your best bet.

be very gently and it may require a couple applications
