Title: Leatherique is awesome!
Post by: dpreston Virginia on February 06, 2017, 14:51:33
Had stains on my original door panels and a crack on my dash.
The photos show how well leatherique worked. It's amazing how well they match colors.
Did the doors a while back and did the dash this weekend.
I only used the color on the top part of door. The rest is the original color.

The work went fast still had time to get the cars out, get them running to enjoy a unusually warm winter day.

Dash crack Repair.
Filled crack sand then apply color.
Last photo is directly above where the crack was located.
Only did the dash above the tach and speedometer.
Used three coats of color.

Beautiful work, Dave.  And, their Prestine Clean product is great for cleaning and feeding the leather (or vinyl).

Dave, how much actual dye product did you use?  I see they have different size containers.  Did you also use all their prep product?

It only took a few ounces to do the dash in the photos. I ordered the 16 oz size to have plenty for any future color work. The prep products work well especially if you are dealing with leather.
The Pristine clean and the rejuvinator products are something I keep on hand. Its hard to beat.

Good morning and car looks great. Did you use the color from their OEM selection or did you send them a swatch?

James,
I used the color from the OEM color chart. With an original interior I couldn't find any excess material to cut off and send.
If you have a 1'' swatch they will match it up which works well if the interior color has faded.
