    Been doing leather repair for 21 years and this is the first video I can honestly say, well done. I would be interested in the products as well as whether you have to be a franchise to purchase or not. My supplier has become a bit flakey on returning calls and the help I last received for an adhesion issue on newer land rovers was useless at best.
    Your process differs a bit from mine but looks to be very good and professional. Much respect

      Thanks for the feedback and kind words. It means a lot especially coming from someone experienced in the field. Where are you based? You don't have to a franchise to purchase. We would love to help and be grateful if you could email us - info@colourlock.com. We have OEM approvals on our products too which should hopefully give you further confidence.

      @bina nocht really hard to answer without putting my hands on it. For the age of the car I would worry about how dry the leather could be or thin areas of wear. I wish I could give a better answer but without seeing it and feeling it its hard to answer. I've seen 3-4 year old cars look like 40 years of wear as well as the opposite of that.

    • @Camoburb
      @Camoburb Рік тому +6

      @bina nocht absolutely do not use any conditioners or especially oils on painted/finished leather. If there are any cracks or raw areas the oil especially will soak into the leather and you will not be able to get a new finish to stick. Some conditioners can make the job very difficult or near impossible. Klasse vinyl, leather, rubber treatment works amazing. However only the clear formula not the milky one.

    • @Camoburb
      @Camoburb Рік тому +1

      @bina nocht I've had a client that oiled his seats and there were areas that the finish was completely worn off so the leather soaked the oil in. Nothing I could do to extract the oil to then get my finish to stick.

    I am at a loss for words. All these years I've wondered how leather is restored & my God. This is just amazing. What a gift. I'm sure it takes years & years of practice to nail the strategy but I'd love to attempt this one day. I think mixing/matching the correct paint color would probably be the hardest part for me, after spending however much money on all the tools necessary to complete the job. Thank you for posting!

    Wow this is a great great job and i would love to do this on my bmw as it needs a full refresh to the front seats. Is there a way you guys sell a full kit or so? I don't live in the USA, otherwise i would have sent it over to you guys. Keep up the good work btw!!!

    Looks wonderful but I too want to know how this holds up from actual use... I can only imagine small cracks would immediately develop in the painted areas as paint is typically quite brittle and inflexible.

      Leather paint is not brittle. Otherwise your brand new seats and sofas would show small cracks the moment you start using them. It is only when they age that leather and paint becomes brittle.

    I remember the guys on Wheeler Dealers doing this to a few cars, but I think they took them to a specialist. Getting a good finish really takes a lot of time and effort.

    Trust me, this is a great solution when selling a car, but give it a few years and the cracks will return. I bought a '92 W124 in 2016, the front seats looked amazing, now the seats' paint is cracking to reveal the damaged leather below. This is akin to the pre-sale bodywork blow-over many dealers give their cars to present them in the best light. The only way to repair damaged leather as in 0:39 is to replace the panel, otherwise it will be like taking a wrinkled 80-year-old, applying some make-up and expecting them to pass as a 30-year-old for the rest of their days.

      I wonder if it depends on the system that you use. I had Fibrenew redo the interior of my W126 Mercedes. I had a very similar hole on the driver side bolster. 10 years and 40,000 miles later and it still looks as good as new.
