Bringing back dry brittle leather car seats

[@djmandrick]

Cheap option for storage is a couple bin bags and some parcel tape. I've currently got two seats on my worksurface in the kitchen and scored it exactly like you did to yours. I've now learnt to stand it with a microfibre, one on each corner! These came up really well!

Those seats came up really well. I do like colourlock products, I use them on my leather steering wheel, gear selector and handbrake gaitor.

You can’t go wrong with ranupur it’s ver similar to Geist leather preserve but super cheap. Thick layer over night and it will soak in. It seems to go in even with top coat. Wipe of the next day, nice Matt finish which is water resistant but you can top it up with a protector.

Steamer or hair dryer will string out those creases

I believe that 9ff is a Ruf

[@paulallenpierceandpierce]

9ff is 9ff and a Ruf is Ruf... 9ff is a Porsche tuner and car manufacturer from North Rhine Westphalia and Ruf is a Porsche tuner car manufacturer from Bavaria.

[@harrywren4136]

Yes I stand corrected

[@danstimelessclassics5899]

9ff is another German tunning company that do similar stuff to ruff ...they even make there own Porsche called a GT9 🫶

I quite like Gtechiq leather cleaner and leather protector (antifriction and anti bacterial). I don't trust colourlock and will never use their damaging products again (overspray has damaged sensitive plastic in the past). The owner is a proper tool too.

Agree awful customer service from Colourlock

[@79blustone]

@Columbo777 Typical German attitude, denied anything could cause such damage from their 'superior brand'. (it did and showed them photos- still got them). I put a post on another channel, seeing if anyone could help as the plastic had chemical burns from the cleaner spray bottle product. The owner of the brand ordered me to take the post down in a private email exchange and he was trying to hint on a legal stance. Unfortunately for him, it was the truth and I had made copies of photos and email. Their chemical caused £850 worth of damage caused by that brand. unfortunately, the Ombudsman service and Citizens advice both said our legal system wouldn't be able to help and I would have to pursue privately and I think using the German legal system. Luckily I managed to fix it myself. Every time I see a channel reviewing or using the brand it gives me a bad trigger. I will just leave very honest reviews everywhere I can to stop it from happening to anyone else.

Do you have any suggestions for what to use on a leather steering wheel as it is quite dry.

[@ForensicDetailing]

just clean it mate. if its real top grain leather, it can benefit from some condition and topper. but try and get the shien out of it by clenaing it a fair bit.

[@jamesw7155]

what cleaner would you use? I currently use Dr Leather at the moment but find it dont take the shein out of it

[@ForensicDetailing]

im using Rams Geist rapid leather and vinyl cleaner mate

Big fan of Rahm and his stuff👌

Lol, lock up your Shetland ponies 🤣

[@joeschmoe6908]

No offense but that seat looks like an adult-sized child car seat. I'm sure it's comfy though.

[@danstimelessclassics5899]

For me there perfect a bit of a squeeze in winter when I'm chubby lol ... But John's been in them 😂... On track there amazing the hold is epic... You do need to be tall for them though imo ...very comfortable but on long journeys I add a lumbar support cushion 😂
