3 years ago I uploaded a video where I re-colored the leather steering wheel of my 2008 Lexus LS 600h using leather dye.
This is an update to show how it has held up and where I do a little (or rather a complete) refresh. - Авто та транспорт
Wait, this is basically the same video as 3 years ago! 🤓
🤣
You mean 3 “yeas” ago. You might want to check the thumbnail.
Nice job Mario
Good Hairdryer you were using 😉👍 Solis Swiss Perfection!
On my crossfire and the cls I have use a good leather cover, the ones you have to stitch and to be honest they look amazing, takes a lot of time ,like 3 hours but everybody liked it. Anyway if I need to see a video of how color a steering wheel now I have yours😋. GOOD VIDEO
Now I have more questions regarding your watch collection :D
Thank you sir: that was helpful
Will this work on the colum?
How to puruchaes this material
Can I have the list of the products please?
Question . Is the texture and feel the same as from the factory ?
No. When it's fresh it's a bit sticky and after a while it feels a little more plasticky. But it never really feels 100% the same. Close enough for me, though.
Is it a Steinhart or Rolex you have?
Rolex ref. 16700 Oyster Perpetual Date GMT-Master 😉

I ruined my steering wheel by cleaning it with alcohol wipes, cause i had oil on my hands. 😂 whats the conditioner and color u used? Im from europe so it might not be available here.
Leather Fresh Dye Kit from www.colourlock.com/ (they are in Germany). Similar products from other manufacturers should work, too.
props to you for doing interior work yourself. i tend to stay away from that on my audi altough i successfully did some button/climate control restaurations myself. in some cars you just have to be extra careful because of the materials they used, one slight mistake and you have a scratch that can hardly be removed and you will forever hate yourself for ruining the looks :D i never had the problem of a fading/worn leather steering wheel, but maybe i was just lucky - if it ever happens, i would probably let someone else do it because it is something that i don´t want to f... up :D
I always buy covers for my steering wheel... People laugh, until theirs is completely worn out while mine is 'as new'... 😁
