Just thought I would post a pic of my failed attempt at trying to restore the interior leather. I used dynamix dyes, silver grey light, however after applying it to the side panel I noticed it was consideraly lighter in colour, so I had to remove the streaks with methylated spirit.
The cracks in the leather took up the dye and I am now left with this marbelled appearance. I suspect I will have to take it to a pro.

How not to restore the interior leather!

Nothing more than a few "stretch marks" Deep! I'm sure given a little bit of wearn it'll blend in. I don't think it looks bad by any means.

Deep, lo puedes hacer tu mismo, mira a mi como me quedo.
Deep, you can do yourself, look at me like I'm staying.

I've seen a lot worse! Possibly it will 'wear' in.....

Hi Chusher,
Unfortunately I am unable to open the thread, thanks Timm I am also hoping it will wear in, I was thinking of doing the whole seat and trying to make the dye slightly darker. -

El producto que he usado es la marca LEDERZENTRUM (www.lederzentrum.de), me apliqué con un poco de paciencia y quedo como nuevo.
En el hilo que no puedes entrar estan las fotografias del antes y el despues.

I have just had my leather done. After 14 years in the hot Andalucian sun, and two break-ins where they then sat on the glass while extracting the stereo, the state of my leather was horrendous. I used a company called Colorcare (www.colorcare.eu) and am absolutely thrilled with the results. They're a franchise so you'll need to check for nearest. For all 4 seats, sterring wheel, gearknob, door cards and dash cost €600. That's for a blue/black two-tone interior.
