[VintageLambo] Leather interior restoration project

Author: docmirror

Message

Guys, I just got my leather refurb kit from Leatherique. I started the restoration of the interior parts tonite, and I"m taking lots of pictures, and notes. My leather is very dry, faded, hard, sun-baked, overdyed, resprayed, stained and cracked in some spots. Letherique promisies that the product can restore what I have to "like new" or better. So far, I"ve got some small pieces from under the drivers dash off, and have used the rejuvinator oil, and sanded the the old dye with 320 and the cleaning agent. Tomorrow nite I"ll prep the leather and start dying with the custom matched color dye. Photos and notes coming later this month, Jack can post it in the files section. What I"ve found so far, is that the leather underneath is pretty good shape, just the surface is thrashed. Doc
