Restored vaders (leatherrepairkits.com) review/pics! 56k-no

[E36DJ]

It's late, I will post a write-up tomorrow, but check out the pics. The entire kit sells for $50 from their site ( www.magic-mender.com or www.leatherrepairkits.com )
They have kits to match the factory color of your interior (dove grey in my case.)

First pic is my drivers seat (it looked worse than this actually, the pic is after I had already filled in the cracks, even though the material is translucent it still makes it look better. note the passenger seat that is totally done at this point. BOTH seats were almost equally bad, the bolsters on the vertical part of the seat were moderately cracked..the leather was still soft, just looked cracked.)

I'll take pics of the complete job tomorrow.




Pic of the passenger seat after using the magic mender (how creative) stuff to fill in all cracks.. and the color cure (factory matched "paint" like stuff.)



Close up picture comparing the bolsters.



One more. Finished seat in foreground, original condition seat in background.

Lol I should have done the driver seat first so the people would believe me.

Wait till tomorrow.

Excellent info man. I'm going to try this as soon as I get the dough !!!

I have looked at that site before and thought it was great, but my only problem is that the color that my seats are (champaigne) dosent look like what they show champaigne to be. Any thoughts?

[Matthew C Smith]

before and after pictures are ALWAYS good

Looks good though!

[Suneal]

Wow, they look like new! If my future car's seats ever get beat up, I know where to go

[bimmerdawg]

Will the paint rub off when wet or rubbed hard?

[///Milkman]

[///Milkman]
