Hi
During the first couple of months there was what appeared to be a faded/scuffed looking area on the passenger door card. I guessed that the leather in the car had never been treated in the 2.5 years that it was on the road.
I purchased some turtlewax leather cleaner/conditioner and treated the seats and doorcards. The seats seem to be ok but the door cards looked really good for 1 day and then these faded patches appeared all over both of them. I treated them again and they have just re-appeared.
My thoughts are that these marks have been covered up (prob by peugeot) with some kind of treatment (or shoe polish), but where they have been cleaned/conditioned it has removed this (it didnt get any worse the second time around)
Are there any treatments for car leather that have a black colourant in them? Or can anyone give me advice on how to sort this out? A friend mentioned Connollising but I dont know much about this?
Thanks
Stu
Leather problem (mainly door cards)
Just touching back on this subject. The fading seems to have gone over time, which is very strange?
However I have just purchased some Gliptone/Liquid Leather (Highly recommended by a huge amount of people) leather cleaner and leather conditioner. They also do a colour wash kit which I think is around £20 (depending on size) so there are still some options if the above doesnt work.
I will look into colonising as a last resort as its going to be £400+ and there is also buttoning which is around £600+
A local company do both of the treatments so at least I wont have to travel far.
Thanks for all the replies
