This blue leather bolster has some damage to it that looks like colour loss/scuffs, this requires a leather restoration.

Our technician arrived at the customers car to restore the damage to the bolster on the car seat. Before the technician could do any work to the bolster he used masking tape to cover the surrounding area. This is to ensure that no overspray can land on the car during the restoration. 

First the technician uses a lint free cloth and leather cleaner to clean the damaged area to ensure there is no dirt embedded in the restoration. After the area has been cleaned the technician preps it using leather prep and another lint free cloth to remove the manufacturers coating and any pesticides on the leather. Now the technician used sandpaper to sand down the area just to make sure that it is all smooth. Next the technician can begin to apply colour to the damage. He does this using an air brush to spray over the scuffed area. Once the area has been coloured the technician applied the final coat of lacquer to seal the restoration.

After Completion

Once completed the area needs to be left for at least 1 hour until it is dry enough to touch. This is if the customer wishes to have a closer look at the repair however we do not recommend it. The area should then not be used for approximately 48 hours. This depending on how much colour and filler is applied during the repair and on how much damage there was.

We advise that all leather is cleaned and protected every six months. This allows the leather to stay clean and fresh. The protection cream gives that extra barrier between the wear and tear and the leather.

Cleaning Kits

Cleaning kits are always recommended after every repair. This to help enable you to maintain your leather from future damage. Please feel free to ask any questions they are happy to give you help and guidance that you may require.
