best stuff to use for leather repair-dreaded drivers door

[mk2mattw]

My daily driver is a Tbar with the leather seats they have been in the car for the full 130,000 so they are a bit tired-not ripped but scuffed and losing their colour!

What is the best stuff to use, is there some sort of dye/paint that i can use to bring them back to life?

cheers

must admit the kit looks great but is there anything cheaper about as £55 is alot of wonga!haha Having said that have you got any pics of before and after you did your seats?

liquid she polish. ok you may need to do it every couple of weeks but cheaper than £55

Just remember to let it soak in and buff it off before sitting in it

"she polish" is this some kinky stuff for women?haha
Take it you mean shoe polish!Was thinking that but was also thinking that it would rub off on clothes!

yeah, shoe polish

I use the liquid shoe polish and not had trouble rubbing off on clothes. Just let it soak in and buff away.

posted by the guy who recommended this system to me, it's the same interior as mine (except mine's got cream seats and carpets) and I just re-coloured mine with pretty much the same colour as OE but the owner of the car pictured he changed the colour of his seats from grey to cream with I think remarkable results, re-colouring black would be very straight forward and you would probaly get away with a £35 kit if you were only doing the effected sections eg I can't see any reason to do the backs of the seats plus you can buy just the dye if required and simply touch up the worn areas
