Interior Re-Dye

Postby JagmanXJR03 » Tue Jun 19, 2018 9:24 pm

I just wanted to show you all (being a novice) how easy it is to rejuvenate car seats. I have attached some pictures of before and after. I called the Furniture Clinic and said to them what I would need. They were just superb. the kit cost me £50, and for that I received a full kit including solvent cleaners, cleaning solutions, cloths, pads, and the colourant dye, perfectly matched in Champagne (SEL) the kit even came supplied with a mini spray gun. And as you can see the results are just unreal!

Looks like an excellent and professional result, the key is being brave enough to have a go and being patient and not rushing it. I did the steering wheel on my S Type last year and it's looking good.

Coupla years back attended JEC's one day Stoke seminar hosted by Furniture Clinic.
Bought a kit of their product and used it as taught by them on a Mk IX bench at the lecture .
Excellent results

I too can’t praise the Furniture Clinic leather restoration paints enough. If it’s just a few creases or scratches, the small £10 60ml bottle is all you need. Their Ivory (NED) colour match is amazing.

On the subject of Ivory trim, can anyone tell me the name or code of the complimentary darker colour used on the steering wheel, dash, console etc.

Many thanks.
