Been doing leather repair for 21 years and this is the first video I can honestly say, well done. I would be interested in the products as well as whether you have to be a franchise to purchase or not. My supplier has become a bit flakey on returning calls and the help I last received for an adhesion issue on newer land rovers was useless at best. Your process differs a bit from mine but looks to be very good and professional. Much respect

I am at a loss for words. All these years I've wondered how leather is restored & my God. This is just amazing. What a gift. I'm sure it takes years & years of practice to nail the strategy but I'd love to attempt this one day. I think mixing/matching the correct paint color would probably be the hardest part for me, after spending however much money on all the tools necessary to complete the job. Thank you for posting!

The transformation is unreal! Great job, guys.

THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CRAFT!! absolutely in love with your ability to breathe life into a dying material. to say I'm a fan would be a massive understament 😩😩

I so wanted you to fix that small piece of piping on the arm rest... that would have made for a perfect repair. The seats look amazing - nice work.

Wow! First rate repair. The hole repair came out incredible. You guys make it look easy, but that is surely a lot of work. Thanks for sharing.

I love that you provided a link to each of the products from their respective point in the timeline of the video.

I am starting an auto detailing business and I had no idea this kind of restoration was even possible! Amazing work.

the part that gets me with stuff like this is how well they blend the paint to match, thats pretty damn nice

Those seats were in pretty rough shape, you did a fantastic job of restoring them to original condition!

Fantastic work. I'm blown away by the results. Thanks for the very detailed information given in the video. Subscribed liked and shared 👍❤️

Omg so glad we have people like you in this world who can restore leather car seats back to life!!!!

a few years ago I bought a complete leather seat cover replacements set for my 87 300sdl on ebay with extra leather to do the headrests and seat backs for 700.00

Similar techniques have been done for decades. I had a repair done on a seat in the 80's. Even the old product held up well for me. I'd bet this holds up for a long time.

Beautiful! In a similar way I managed to restore my steering wheel I couldn’t believe what a difference it makes even for first time trying

Tinting the filler is genius! Thank you!

Great cleaning and repairing those seats it's realy a good thing to take care of them i think that its realy helpful.

You guys really did some magic to these seats 💪

Artistry at its finest! Excellent work. Bravo!

Thank you for making a video showing all the steps of the restoration and on top of that explaining what and why are you using in each step. Awesome job!👍

Wow, I never thought those types of repairs were possible with leather.

That was amazing! Never would I have thought those seat would look so good. Amazing work!

Great work! Thank you for the detailed look at leather restoration!

no bs, just an actual and effective guide for seat repair. nice

Wow, I feel so satisfaction when it covered by paint and the result was Amazing!

Absolute fantastic job! You are highly talented artists. Congratulations.

I kind of like the idea of repair. Even if it is not always cheaper than getting a newer car. One of the true ways to make a difference in our waste and sustainability problem.

The creases on the driver seat still show, most of the leather grain is gone, which is an honest expectation considering the starting point. I'd love to see them in a few years.

Great. I love people doing their job with knowledge AND enthusiasm. This leads to great results. Greetings from Germany.

OMG! You've done such an amazing job guys! Well done 👍

You have done a fantastic job, but I don’t think I can do it😂. Thank you for showing

I have a Toyota Supra with the SAME SEATS (color, defects) and you gave me the way to restore them. GREAT ! ! !

Bondo & spray paint. Gotcha 👍

Awesome work! I never knew this could be done. I thought leather seats like this had to be re-upholstered. Keep up the great work. GODSPEED mate!

Great work, I'm currently in the process of doing my car and I like what you've done.

This is sheer artwork. It takes dedication and lots of experience

Trust me, this is a great solution when selling a car, but give it a few years and the cracks will return. I bought a '92 W124 in 2016, the front seats looked amazing, now the seats' paint is cracking to reveal the damaged leather below. This is akin to the pre-sale bodywork blow-over many dealers give their cars to present them in the best light. The only way to repair damaged leather as in 0:39 is to replace the panel, otherwise it will be like taking a wrinkled 80-year-old, applying some make-up and expecting them to pass as a 30-year-old for the rest of their days.

Without the unbearable 6-note jingle blaring for 12 minutes this could be an instructional video.

Amazing transformation!!!! I never knew seats could be restored similar to car paint

Masterful. I love it when people do know their craft in and out.

Didn't know this kind of repair was even possible. Nice work.

Thats amazing work, well done!

Really interesting to see how you filled that bad hole, and how much work was involved overall. I never realised you could actually 'respray' a leather car seat!

Presently restoring my dream car, I had the seats taken away to be fixed up and have to say they looked as good as this. Very interesting to see the process. Well done guys, I never realised how this could be achieved and the time and products involved.

great looking repair. I was hoping through the whole video that you'd fix that piece of edging on the arm rest. The end result looks great!

Ive been doing interior repairs for a few years now and it never occured to me to mix some dye in with the crack filler. Thats going to save me alot of time!

The only Vidoe I’ve seen with detailed process and making mention of all materials and products. We would love another Vidoe of more recent cars likes of new bmw x5 and recent ones and new products with much explanation just like this.

In my early 20's I owned a small business specializing in leather/vinyl repair. It's a very rewarding industry, both financially and visually. I loved walking up to a vehicle with destroyed leather seats and say to myself, "I can fix that". The sad reality is for both myself and the unwitting persons who bought those vehicles, was the product only last for a few months at best before the dye's and repair product started deteriorating. After several years I began to feel like I was operating a "scamming" business, knowing full well that every single car that I "repaired" would soon be back to its original state. The only repairs that were permanent were carpet dye and even then, if it's a red stain, it would eventually begin to bleed back through.. I'm now 48, on my third business (sold the other two) and love what I do for a living... I'm sure the automotive repair industry is still alive and thriving, I only hope the products of today hold up better than they did 20+ years ago.. Great video btw.

Excelente trabalho nunca vi algo parecido

Fantastic. I never ever thought you could rejuvenate leather like that. Great video

Amazing results. You are the BEST!

Wow, Well done Sir. Master of your craft. Nice to see these days people doing great work like this.. :)

Wow. Looks new! Amazed at how well the patch and filler repaired the holes and cracks. How durable is this?

OUTSTANDING CRAFTMENSHIP, THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR AMAZING TALENT, REALLY ENJOYED IT

Pretty cool process. The filler looked like dental gel...Thanks for sharing your techniques and expertise!✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦

wow im really surprised! never saw such a great work before! i mean the seats look like they are NEW o.o

They really did turn out well! I need to restore my V70 Oak leather seats

Wow this is a great great job and i would love to do this on my bmw as it needs a full refresh to the front seats. Is there a way you guys sell a full kit or so? I don't live in the USA, otherwise i would have sent it over to you guys. Keep up the good work btw!!!

Here in California, you can't find anyone who will do this. They want to simply recover the seats with OEM seat covers from Mercedes. No one has the skill or would take the time necessary to do such quality work. Well done.

It looks really very well done. I had repair in my W210 in a same way with amazing final results . But cannot be as a new one in 2 years again I have cracks and my eyes are always there when I open the door . Just to mention after repair it was really amazing , car is always in garage with controlled humidity . 2 years and 26 000 km again I have cracks .. And finally decided in the beggining of May to change completely the leather in front .

Awesome works as always guys!

In such cases, a good job is to completely replace problem areas of the leather. And if there is a difference in color, then only in this case you need to touch up.

Excelente trabajo, muchísima paciencia y profesionalidad.

Wow, amazing job. Just the clean and degrease made them look infinitely better. But the final product is nothing short of miraculous. What is the cost to repair a seat vs reupholstering?

Great finish, just a shame you didn't do anything with the piping on the armrest

Looks amazing, my question is how durable is this repair. I have a classic car that has a fair amount of patina lines especially on the drivers side. I’m not flipping the car so I’m interested in a long term repair. Will the filler pop out over time?

You did a good demonstration.TY for the detail process break down.

Beautiful job! It's amazing to see seats all cracked with a hole, look like brand new! I just ordered Giest leather cleaning kit for my leather seat covers, steering wheel and ebrake boot cover, i can't wait!

What a great job! Can't believe the before and after shots!

I'm not really interested in painting/refinishing my leather. But the adhesive backing cloth is something I am definitely interested in.

An amazing transformation, makes me want to have a go at restoring a leather seat.

I LOVE watching Skilful people Work.👍💯

Amazing transformation. When do you use Elephant Fat to improve how supple old leather is?

Wow thats amazing! That looks like an art form that i wish i would to be able to do! The end result probably looks better than it was brand new

Woah! You’re an artist. I need practice pieces! AMAZING! Thank you for sharing!

Just Amazing!! Awesome to see a master of their craft at work!

Belíssimo trabalho

Congratulations! Perfect and ecologycal.

Beautiful result.

This video is exactly what I've been searching for ! I'm on my way to restore my W124 300TE seats !

Piekna robota 💪

this guy is experienced . with the expensive tools . what you pay for the tools and materials you might as well let them do it probably work out cheaper

Wow, that made a world of difference and almost, in a way, satisfying to watch. I wonder how it will hold up in the long term because of the synthetic material used or if any of that coloring would come off on your clothing.

This reminds me of a jacket I had that was blue leather on one side and fur on the other side and I threw that jacket away because the leather had worn out and it was almost the same color as those seats I just saw you fixed and now I'm pissed off! Because I could have found a person like you to fix that jacket and make it look new again this was amazing work😊

The best or nothing 👌🏼

Looks wonderful but I too want to know how this holds up from actual use... I can only imagine small cracks would immediately develop in the painted areas as paint is typically quite brittle and inflexible.

there is nothing better than a master who enjoys his work and the result.

This was amazing! Thank you!!

Great effect, but the color is not matched from before, so it would be interesting to see those seats back in a car...

very nice job Sir. I wonder how long will the restauration last after the owner starts using the seats again daily.

This was so enjoyable, i was looking for now to get a minor scratch out of my dr martens, but couldn't stop watching. Amazing work!!

Thank You for posting this. Our W124 300E '92 can finally be semi-restored from the interior, black leather seats.

I remember the guys on Wheeler Dealers doing this to a few cars, but I think they took them to a specialist. Getting a good finish really takes a lot of time and effort.

Damn, the result is awesome!

Always wondered how restorers did this. Must be a satisfying job.

Awesome work, really impresive! Thanks for sharing!

Cool work, they look great -but how do they feel? I'm wondering if the repair products make the final product much stiffer than leather feels when it's fresh/ cared for properly

Парни, Вы реально крутые🤘👍👏👏👏 Результат просто супер 🙌

First of all: thank you for this great video ! What do I have to do if I have serious scratches and paintloss on the middle part (with the little holes in the leather)? Can I also use the liquid filler and then need to pick the holes out again with a needle or sth? Best regards

Fantastic results. Great job!
