Leather seat restoration - Help

[Dondbg]

Guys.

I’m looking for an advise on how I can repair my recaro black leather seat, it got some scuffs and light colour faded cracks, it’s from 2004 S4, it’s been used for a while :)

Which and what product you recommend? I see a lot available but not sure which will work best.

I would look into the swissvax leather paint kits if you're gonna go the diy route. I had some very minor damage on one of my seats and not can barley tell it was there

I used colourlock dye to fix my black b8 s4 leather scuffs. Pretty easy to use and like above cant tell it was even redyed. They have matching dyes if you get your leather code

Should try the 2 part kit from Leathererique. Its a great kit that have used on my b7 s4 seats. sometimes it takes two good treatments of the oil then the cleaner. but it should help.

Finished cleaning the driver seat. Looks good for a 13 year old seat.



I didn’t realise how dirty it was, all I used is this plus a bad ass vacuum cleaner



Yup my 3 month old baby boy wipes, works magic and causes no damage, 100% safe, well they are made for babies.

Next I will need to fix the bolster, it needs new foam.

What are you going to do for the cracks? The sides and bolster look the same on my seats and I would like to get it looking better.

super old post, but if you're still around, how did the Recaro restore turn out? any tips + things you'd do differently? (or old photos after completed ) ?
thanks in advance for any insights
