Restoring Leather

[DusheR]

Whats the best way to restore leather? Ive got 106 GTI leather in and its a bit worn. Has a lot of cracking in it. Ive been looking at dying it. Anyone done this before?

Not really much you can do mate, there was a thread on detailing world about it, there is a kit you can get, basically sand the leather ever so slightly to get the cracks out then put some paint type stuff on to restore it, depends on how far gone it is though

hmmm. I was just thinking dye it. Its a light brown colour underneath where its cracked. So if I dye it the same as the leather it wont be as noticable.

If not has anyone got 106 gti leathers for sale?
