Wipe the surface of the leather with a damp cloth. Apply a leather preparer and deglazer to the surface of the leather."
article: Prepare your painting area by putting tarps or drop cloths under the leather so that paint doesn't get everywhere. Make sure to paint the leather in a well-ventilated room so that you don't inhale paint fumes. If if you plan on painting leather furniture, it's a good idea to disassemble the furniture before you start painting, so that paint doesn't drip onto other parts of the furniture. If you are painting leather shoes, remember to take the shoelaces out before you start painting them. Dampen a rag with isopropyl alcohol and wipe down the surface of the leather. The alcohol will remove any preliminary coatings, waxes, or oils that are on the surface of the leather, which will help the paint adhere to the leather. Isopropyl alcohol may not be strong enough to remove all leather finishes, so skip to sanding if this is the case. If your leather is still shiny, sanding off the shiny areas with a 100 - 200 grit sandpaper will remove portions of the glossy finish. Put the sandpaper in the palm of your hand and work it back and forth over the shiny areas. Continue to sand until all of the shine is off of the leather. Before you start painting the leather, make sure that the surface is clean. Take a damp rag or a microfiber cloth and wipe over the surface of the leather. Continue wiping the leather until all of the dirt is lifted off. Any dirt or dust left on the surface of the leather will be embedded into your paint job. You can purchase a bottle of leather preparer and deglazer at craft stores or online. Saturate a rag with the preparer and deglazer and work it generously onto the surface of the leather. The preparer and deglazer will dry fast because it's alcohol based. Leather preparer and deglazer formulas are made specifically to help paint adhere to leather. The preparer and deglazer may fade the old color of your leather.

Anywhere besides a formal dinner, it is acceptable to pick up the shell and fill it with a little bit of the broth and then suck the mussel and broth directly from the shell, although you may still want to loosen it with a fork first. When your mussels arrive, there will likely be a small amount of meat juice inside the shell, which can be quite enjoyable. Sucking your mussel from the shell allows you to easily enjoy the juices. While not generally considered polite in American fine dining restaurants, in other countries, like France, it is commonplace to use your empty mussel shell as a tool to pry out subsequent meat from the other shells. Use one half as a spoon and insert it into your next mussel to scoop out the meat. Grip the back of your first discarded shell with the open side facing out. Use your fingers to gently apply pressure to the top and bottom of the shell. This way, you can open and close the shell with your fingers and use it to pick up other shells. While this is often considered unusual, it is acceptable in most places to pry out all of your mussels at the beginning of your meal and enjoy them all at once. Particularly if your mussels come in a booth or soup, this may provide ease in eating.
