Answers:
"Bycast leather is simply a top grain leather that has been brushed or abraded with a steel brush to pull up a nap or a soft fuzzy texture. Bycast can be a top grain or split hide but in either case it is ironed very smooth to remove most of the natural graining and a large amount of protective coating is then applied. This leather is usually used on more contemporary frames. Bycast leathers will be very easily cleaned."
ByCast Leather is a combination of natural leather hides processed and bonded to a man-made surface covering.
Bicast leather is natural leather coated with PVC. The end result gives it a glossy look.
