Leather Is A Bit Tired

Recommended Posts

ORB

Hello chaps, first up, I am a bit new on here so sorry if this has been posted before.

 

The leather seats in my project car are a bit poorly, they are not cracked or split, but they have white lines all over them.

 

See pic:

Can any of you guys let me know a way to make them all pretty again?

 

Cheers

Liquid Leather

 

I have used these guys on 3 cars and a sofa now - give them a bell and tell them what car you have and they will send a bottle of leather cleanser, a pot of dye and a conditioner colour matched for about 25 quid.

 

Highly recommended.

Isn't there anything cheaper than £25?! Granted it probably works very well but you'd think someone would have made a leather dye a bit cheaper than that by now.

I reckon with a bottle of liquid leather and a replacement bolster for the drivers seat they would look loads better. You'll never remove the creases but you can certainly hide them.

 

I've got a spare driver seat righthand foam bolster from a recent seat refurb if you're interested.

That's for a kit though, so includes cleaner and feeder which you could always buy seperately or not bother with! And it does work well, so..
