Leather Restore / Cracks Fix
Good day folks, looking for some advice on a product that I can order to restore the leather seats in my car. I need a product that will ship to Canada (alot of stuff will not ship here for some reason). The leather is not split or anything just seems to be worn look on the edges of the seats - not sure how to describe it (spider web looking). If you can suggest a kit that I can order that works well that would be great (black leather seats).

Thanks everyone - Spring driving is here!!

This would be my recommendation if you would live in germany: Willkommen | Lederzentrum - Spezialist für Lederpflege, Lederreparatur, Beratung

They can mix you color that matches exactly to your leather. They also have the most Porsche and other german manufacturer leather colors on stock. Also leather leather repair sets, leather car products and so on.

They do have a distributor for their products in Canada: Cuir Esthética entreprise traitant écologiquement le cuir

Regards from germany
Markus

JC986 posted the below thread in February of last year. It is one of the best jobs of leather repair I have ever seen.

I had a professional restore my seats and they started to wear after only 1 summer.
I tried with products bought online and that did not last(they reimbursed me 100%), finally got seats reupholstered in leatherette for $1200 couldn't be happier.

Try Leatherique. Their "rejuvinator" oil is fantastic! I used their dye to recolor my seats from navy blue to black. They're perfect! Used a cheap paint gun from Amazon. Professional results. Cant say enough good things about them. Colorplus is good too.

Did you call them? Shipping to Canada from the USA is no big deal, it just costs more.
