Why restore your leather car seats? There may be several different reasons; for example, it may be that your leather seats are still in good structural condition, but have some wear and tear and damage such as scratches to the surface of the leather. Many lease cars now have leather interiors and all too often you may have inadvertently damaged them. This can lead to a hefty bill from the lease company if it’s not addressed before handing the car back.
However, the best reason of all is cost. Reupholstering with a new leather interior can cost many thousands of pounds. Restoring existing leather car seats will cost significantly less, whilst leaving a surface essentially the same as the original factory finish, giving you many more years of use.

Our Professional Leather Car Seat Restoration Service...
We can usually restore most types of leather. The most common leather car seat restoration that we come across is for pigmented leather (the most common leather used for car seats and domestic leather upholstery). It generally responds extremely well to being restored. Another, less common leather finish that we see is called aniline or semi-aniline finish. Because the surface of aniline leather is essentially unsealed and porous, it tends to get damaged by spillages and soiling, leaving it unsightly to look at and difficult, if not impossible to clean.
If this has happened to your aniline leather car upholstery, we may be able to help. Our process essentially turns your aniline leather into a pigmented leather. It will change the look and feel of it (and so we will need to discuss your expectations in some detail), but may be an option to consider rather than having to reupholster it.
When we initially speak with you, we will discuss and identify what type of leather you have and advise accordingly on what professional leather restoration results are achievable, based on the extent of wear and damage to your leather that is currently present.

Results of will, of course, depend very much on the current condition. Before we can quote, we will always need to look at some photos and in some cases visit to inspect the seats.
Can we restore any damage? No! Sometimes, the surface may simply be too worn or damaged for a repair to be worthwhile or economical.
We will always give you an honest opinion of what is achievable and what you can expect.

Our Five Step Leather Car Seat Restoration Process...
Step 1. Deep Clean And Prep Surface
Before any leather restoration can take place, an essential part of any leather restoration project is the preparation. First we deep clean all surfaces and remove existing seal finish to provide the best surface to work with.
Step 2. Repair Existing Damage
There is nearly always some pre-existing damage to the surface of the leather from general use and wear and tear. Scratches, scuffs and nicks etc are inevitable. Before any colour is applied to the leather, we will repair and fill as necessary* (*results of repairs will of course vary depending upon the severity of the issue - we will discuss this with you prior to any work taking place).
Step 3. Apply New Colour
Now for the best bit! Applying the new leather surface colour. Depending upon the logistics of the area where we are working on your item, we will use a combination of methods to apply leather colour, including spray, roller and sponge.
Step 4. Apply Factory Seal
Once several coats of leather dye have been applied, it is vital that the surface is then sealed to protect the leather. The seal is identical to that originally applied at the factory. You can choose anything from matt to gloss finish.
Step 5. Customer Sign Off
Once completed, we will invite you to inspect our work and ensure that you are satisfied. Please also remember that even after we leave, you are covered by our 100% satisfaction guarantee and 12 month warranty. If you are not satisfied with any part of our service, we will happily return and put things right until you are!
