Just after a bit advice on this. Has anyone renovated and/or changed the colour of the leather seats in their car and dashboard before?

What was the outcome and do you have any products or links you could recommend?

The best results are either to clean and conditioner the leather yourself, or find a professional re-trimmer. Changing the colour is a complete waste of time, money....and does not work.

Hi

Please see photos of recently recoloured car seat changing internal panels from black to red using BRIT system for recolouring.





BRIT products are very light but with high colour content so can effect a change in a couple of coats and not fill in the holes as you can see from the close up.

Hope this helps

Hi Judy, and welcome to PH.

Have a read of the sticky topic at the head of this forum on professionals posting pictures of their work - PH makes money out of advertising, and frowns on self-promotion as lost revenue.

Impressive recolouring with a red over black, nonetheless!
