I just did this on a Range Rover Classic. I considered buying new upholstery, doing a full leather restoration, etc. This came out great. Almost unbelievably so. It also took some of the hard patina off the seat and made it seem years younger and softer. I think I spent $20 or so and an hour of time.
Great to hear John! Thank you so much for watching and sharing your sweeeeet results we really appreciate it, hope you have a fantastic week. mad Mike
@@SweetProjectCarsHey mate, would cleaning these seats after doing this be the same as how you would do it before?
Im a professional detailer and all I can say is damn. I wish I would have done this about 8 hours ago before I started this restoration job on leather seats. He bypassed the whole waiting process and its cost efficient. Folks he is absolutely correct. It doesnt change texture. The lacquer thinner acts as a cleaner and paint promoter mixed with new paint and this technique causes it to blend instead of changing the texture on the substrate. Good job man!!! Why didnt I think of this
I agree, this gentleman is terrific!
I suppose what's key is the color match..for 30m of work I gotta say its impressive. I use lacquer thinner all the time to clean paint. So many shy away from it. Gotta know how to use it. I think it would be good to experiment first to get comfortable with the process. I have professionally dyed leather and replaced too. I'm gonna def try this out even if just out of curiosity. One thing I know for sure. If the leather has worn to a suede texture no amount of dye or blending will change that. Thanks for the tip.😊
@@erniepatai6644 I have been doing this method since I've seen his techniques. Takes a little practice. Not much. You will have the process down after the first seat or try as we all tend to overthink things on out first run. It saves money but i only do it for quick repairs or small jobs. Not an entire seat. It comes out a little to shiny for my liking versus oem. Painting or reupholstering the seat is always the best. Just time consuming and some customers can't or won't pay for that type of job. But it's a great method for customers on a budget or your cheaper cars. Not recommended for high end vehicles.
Can I use leather dye with lacquer thinner? Or does it have to be paint for this method?
@@angrycabbie1 Can I use leather dye with lacquer thinner? Or does it have to be paint for this method?
After watching a professional leather person restore a seat with his special products that cost a lot of money, it was clear that he was doing exactly what you did for almost nothing. He went on and on about it. but you came to the point in minutes.
Another great video.
The only thing he had in his "toolbox", was a filler for cracked leather. A filler.
@@andrewdomenitzdmd Then he wasn't a professional.
Thank you everyone else video 30 min...he right to the point
Really don’t understand people who hit the dislike button.. why on earth you would do that..a guy gives you a cheap easy solution to restore you leather seats... strange!
Rafi Peled there are just many jealous people out there...they get upset that they did not think of it. thank you for being here with us my friend :)
Maybe the people that hit dislike didn't like the technique and thought it came out shitty. This "cheap and easy" fix looks like a cheap and easy fix in the end. I guess people that look down on the finished look don't consider this is a ten dollar investment...not a one hundred dollar investment.
minuteskill you are very correct it was a 10 dollar fix and we have done it 100's of times and it works perfect, those who would not like it we found are just skeptical by nature and some were mad they never thought of such an easy cheap permanent fix.
@@SweetProjectCars does the paint fade or come off over time?
Wouldn't want my nice linen pants getting stained red.
Haters gotta hate. Just glad I'm not "that" guy. would suck to be them.
This technique is NO bulls**t! It worked like magic on my 2000 BMW 323! I did this to all of my seats with rustoleom camouflage beige color spray paint. The armrests and everything are pretty much brand new! Thanks so much for this tutorial, I am a new subscriber! ❤️
glad we could help Gabby
How do the seats feel? Any different before and after the paint?
@@morganmartinelli1219 feel great, just like brand new seats, slightly smoother than before to be honest.
@@nativebabe9913 how is it holding up?
Give it a shot Robert try it for yourself you’ll see the amazing results you got nothing to lose and all the gain
My seats aren't even cracked but I had to see how this turned out! Looks awesome!
thank you
thank you
Lol I don't even have leather seats and still had to see.
Elizabeth I don't have a car , I have a donkey but I had to see
Santos Banuelos I don't have a donkey. I have a potato but I had to see also.
Wow ! Ifollowed this video and my 23 years old Audi A8 just got brand new light grey leather seats. THANKS from Denmark.
Thank you very much we're very glad you are here with us and it worked for you .. :)

Sweet Project Cars okay thanks for that mate 👍,I actually have red and black leather seats but my driver side cracked faded like one video,so appreciate tip very helpful,
Just implemented this procedure to address some scuff marks on my leather motorcycle seat. Worked like a charm. Great video!
That is how youtube video should look like! Short/interesting/useful info. Thank you good sir!
THANK YOU :)
TH-cam before 2015 was perfect like this

Hi buddy I don't have theses cracks but last year someone's jackets buttons marked my carbon black nappa leather seat out of my e63s AMG'. It bucket style seats and the side has scrape showing the hide underneath , do you think just using lacquer thinner will bring out? It's not that old but that looks not nice
I went on youtube looking to find the best leather restore product and found this video .. Wow!! I did this with Rustoleum flat black paint with the thinner and the seats look new... super easy and it works! Thank you!!
Awesome! Thank you so much for watching and sharing Dana, we truly appreciate it. Have a fantastic day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
***To repair bad leather steering wheels see this **th-cam.com/video/ViDbxl-93W4/w-d-xo.html** :)***
This worked like a charm. I tried it on my car and couldn't believe the results!
you are genius sir ... love it .. love it .. I always buy cars with leather seats
Thank you Paul :)
Thank you :)
Konrad C Why? What would happen? Could you please elaborate?
WE HAVE DONE THIS REPAIR FOR TWENTY YEARS WITH NO ILL EFFECTS EVER !!!
IT WORKS MY FRIEND...IT WORKS!!! been doing it for 20 years with perfect long long lasting results. thanks for the kudos
Your videos are always short , sweet and to the point. I haven't seen a video of yours yet that hasn't been applicable to most everyday people! Thanks for everything!
I have to tell you, I've done your technique on my 2005 325i BMW on my gray interior with Satin Granite Rust-Oleum 2X Painters Touch Paint and Primer with the same brand "paint" thinner you used because I didn't have the "lacquer" thinner. I watched this video, and then followed with the black leather and your other tan/beige leather video. I used Surf City Garage Voodoo Blend Leather Rejuvenator that I saw in another video...AH'MAZING RESULTS!!! I am restoring my BMW. This technique is actually good enough for restoration projects. It absolutely does not rub off on your clothes or your rag after you use your leather conditioner. You are a wizard! Thanks so much for your videos. People are flipping out over my before and after results! I tell everyone about you. I wish we could show you pictures! I do wear gloves...lol. I even did a little sanding on my seats and armrest. This technique still gave full professional coverage. It's flexible and durable. 😎👍
thank you so much, Mandy and we are very happy it worked for you...
Mandy Lewis
Is rustolium a rust or regular paint. Im not in the US i cant find the brand
I'm looking forward to your answer. Can I use a regular car paint in spray or it has to be oil-base ?
Yes, paint thinner of the same brand.
It's a multi-purpose paint. It is, however, awesome for rust prevention as well.
Yet another brilliant tip.. I’ve always used duplicolor vinyl paint in a rattle can, which works if the color matches perfectly. But for the other 9 out of 10 times that it doesn’t match perfectly, this looks like the way to go. Thanks for the tip
This totally worked for my 2001 SAAB leather.
First I brush the leather dye on. Then I use the Lacquer Thinner to smooth it out.. Then I apply a leather conditioner. Final step is to use a leather balm.
100% works. Thank you very much !!!
I just did this to my 04 xc90. Your technique worked better then the leather dye I had. I applied a bit of the thinner first to remove remnants of shoe dye that someone put on seats to hide the wrinkles. Over time it wore off/discolored. It stood out as a bad dye job. I also removed blue jean dye that got on side of seat. Then dyed seats per your vid. They look great now! Husb thought I was destroying seats. Showed him your vids. Now he's hooked. Lol.
All the dislikes come from detailing shops lol
Best comment lmfao
2 yrs later big FACTZ Ray.
works best with black leather. My friends mercedes seats look brand new now
Ray Ant damn my seats are tan
@trajan hercules I have a Tan interior. Can I use thinner then black matte??
eMCEE86 can u do my Mercedes? 😏
Excellent. I'm a small dealer and mechanic. Painting leather is a pain. This is a much quicker way to present a vehicle if you have to move it fast or in general. Got a new trick in my arsenal. Just used it on my 2000 Silverado and have a nice new set of front leather seats. Only 125k on that baby. Thanks man.
Seriously, thank you for just getting to the point. Nobody cares about peoples drawn out intros, especially DIY and how to videos.
Our pleasure Cecilia! Thank you for watching, we really appreciate it, have a great week. mad Mike the hammer SPC
This is by far the best, most effective, and affordable method I have come across. Thank you sir. You are a legend!
hi thank you very much
WOW,I have a light Almond color leather seats in my 01 Grand Marquis and I followed your process...OMG they came out great...I do have some pretty good cracks that are not not all the way through, but it still came out way better than anything else...Thanks...
you are welcome Paul we have been trying to tell the world this is the easiest, cheapest way to make you seats look good.
I showed a couple of friends that have the same problems and they had a similar result..They weren`t sure if it would work or not but their`s came out better because they didn`t have as mush cracks as mine....
Paul Stuart you know it's hopeless when the crack is the size of Kim Kardashian's😝
Thats Awesome Paul...
awesome great to hear....
I truly wish I could like this video more than once awesome tip
thank you
manuel matias a million times more?
Thanks Manuel
Ultimate seat saver!!!! I just saved thousands of dollars
Just did it yesterday to my 06 Pontiac GTO and the seats now look brand new. Thank you!
Nice work! Thanks for sharing Robert! Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I can not believe it. It works!! Thank You. Ed Newhart
thank you :)
Sweet Project Cars just tried it on my worn black leathered E36. Looked better but i seeked for even better resault. So i endee up painting the leather with the can 😂😂
gotcha
best trick ever.just tried it and it works
thanks
Sweet Project Cars only issue and im being very picky. is i need something to soften the leather.also my car is a 96 lol
yes just use leather conditioner everyday for about 20 days...it will soften..
Lexol Leather Conditioner. 303 is great for some things but not conditioning and softening leather.
Lexol is good as well....basically anything for leather is better than nothing and that's what the prior owner used...nothing.
I did this today in my 03 Z4! Amazing! My seats are black and beautiful again! Very easy and very inexpensive and my seats look amazing. Thank you!
You are very welcome Lisa we are so glad we could help you would do a lot of videos every week for the DIYer just like you make sure your subscribe so you do not miss any of them. Have a great week my friend
Bought my mom a used caddie with low miles, but the seats were an eyesore. Did this...and it was a total transformation! Wish I could post before and after videos, but it worked great! Thank you!
Glad we could help you Nick glad to hear you’re taking care of mom we only have one that’s for sure
Wow! great job. I've tried everything from shoe polish to magic marker on my black leather but nothing beats your method for quick, inexpensive and high quality results. Thank you.
Thank you Chris we truly appreciate that my good friend
Wowwww I wasn't expecting that good of a result thumbs up man
Thanks Titan
I wrote a while back asking about this technique and a suede leather couch.i finally got around to doing it and it worked like a charm!!!the couch looks brand new!! I want to thank you for the great videos you make I watch all of them!
Gus thank you very much and we are glad it helped you and we are very glad to have you here with us :)
This is something that repair shops never share to consumers. Thanks for ur efforts!
YeEvlL you are very welcome my friend....we are here to help the DIYer
I done it today on my black worn out leather, and it works! I wish I am able to attach the pic here!
Thanks a million, sweet....
That's actually a good idea... YT is going to jump on it.
@@parram.3942 Does it still look good?
Just watching some of your old videos....That's plain nuts! My daughter is going to love me (at least for a bit) when I restore her leather seats in her Forester.
Every video I watch just boosts your amazing status up a notch Dan!
Oh, and I've been using 303 for probably 10 yrs. With your advice I'm using it in many more ways.
Ok one last thing. I've been looking at used cars and now I know that leather seats in this condition are not an issue and can be easily recovered.
Leonardokite thank you very much for your very kind comments and you are correct on the 303 we use it on everything :)
Impressive. My seats never got that bad due to occasional conditioning and keeping out of the sun but for a few small areas, never thought of some of these things, useful info!
I used this process on my (25 year old) living room leather furniture, finished with the "Lithium Leather Love" you recommended in another video. Results were phenomenal! Thanks much!
Nice!! Thank you so much for watching and sharing Don, we truly appreciate it. Have a great day my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Wow IT worked. I used it on my old Rolls Royce 1985. It looks like I just took a brand new seat and replaced it.
Thanks from sweden🇸🇪
thats awesome to hear my friend good job
Wow, that's my morning sorted for tomorrow, off to the paint store!
This worked amazing on my fiat 500 abarth seats !!! I had a small leather repair kit with I was going to use but instead I just used the dye from the kit and followed your directions with amazing results ty for posting this !
Glad we could help you
Im seeing a trend here... laquer thinner, 303 protectant, Mothers Mag and Alum., Mothers products in general, and Im sure im missing a few but I understand you have done this for years and probably decades and have found WHAT WORKS!
autO you are very correct we worked for years trying to find the products that work and we did, now we are sharing them and our method with the world :)
AutOdometer and what's what.
the trend is we use the same products as we are not a channel that does many reviews on tons of products
Man! I just finished the seats in my Harley Davidson F150...I was pretty worried about trying this technique, but it looks AMAZING! Like new! Thanks so much for showing this procedure. I didn't use spray paint though, I went to a local body shop and had them mix me half a litre of paint, using the Ford paint code. I did pour some lacquer thinner in it when on the cloth as you did, perfect match. Thanks again!
Good job Steve glad to hear that that’s the whole idea of our channels to perk your imagination and make it happen Captain
Did this to my SL500 leather driver seat
Came out unbelievable
Had a guy quote me $200 to "spray" seat.
Haha
I turned this trick onto a few of my friends that can't believe how easy it was to do
Thanks again and keep the vids coming
You are very Welcome Mike we are glad to help!!
Sweet Project Cars would it hurt to use a leather spray paint - or does it have to be the regular spray paint to work ?
A BM you can use any color as long as it is enamel or Lacquer base
Sweet Project Cars do you think if I use ColorBond LVP Leather, Vinyl & Hard Plastic Refinisher Spray Paint it would make a difference since it's for leather seats?
try it on a small area and see if you like the results
You helped me with my headlight restoration. Now I'm going to restore my seats. Thank you so much!

thanks sweet car project for sharing this sweeeeeeet trick!!! :)
Holy crap dude that looks brand freaking new, excellent job.
Thank you David we appreciate that look for the last two videos we loaded this week those are pretty awesome as well they were done on our S 500 project car
David White it looks good but I guarantee what ever clothes you wear it will leave dye stains all over the back.

Instant sub with this kind of heat 😂🔥🔥🔥🙌🏻
*Thank you! It worked wonderfully well on a 2007 VW Passat with 120,000 mi, black interior.*
I live in a very warm region with lots and lots and lots of sun, the car spent to 30-50% of it´s time under the sun (not anymore).
Now I am trying the same on the steering wheel, which is badly faded. I am into the 4th. application. It has improved BUT is still far away from being "normal". Planning to use some leather dye next.

Thanks for posting this, I had some red seats in a car I was getting ready to sell, they were a bit worse that these. Followed the guidance and they turned out really well, car sold and customer actually commented on how nice the seats were on a 15 yr old car....I have 2 others in my workshop who's seats will be getting same treatment....before seeing this I didnt know where to start with them.
The Seat was a paid actor...
I was the seat
HAHAHAH

The seat was probably arsed into
Must admit I was worried when this started out with a "closely matched" rattle can of paint, but this is rad! Thank you!

Just bought a used Cadillac for my mom. It needs a little cosmetic TLC before i give it to her. Among some other absolutely great videos on how to rejuvinate road-rashed wheels, fix moisture in the headlight assembly, and fix minor surface scratches.....I originally thought, "man, i wish these black leather seats looked better". They not torn, just cracked a bit.....and now, thanks to you, I'll be adding this to my list of inexpensive but highly effective how-to's! Thank you very much!
You’re very welcome my friend we actually have one just like this video that we do on a 2007 DTS that has black leather if you look through our videos you will find it I’m great day
I wish I had known this when I had my old car, I have a new car now. Good job!
Batgirl P thank you very much we truly appreciate that more than you know :)
My brother has a 1972 Chevrolet Corvette convertible ,and at first I asked my brother if I could help him get his leather seats looking brand new.he replied with a simple (No) as an answer.and one day when he went out for a trip to New Mexico for a month. I decided to try this and see if it worked and if it didn't I would of simply just bought him brand new leather seats... But it actually worked! And when my brother came back from a long trip. He just stared at the car and said to me "how in the hell did you do that?" I simply replied and said. A TH-cam video! He gave me 200 hundred bucks, and at the same time he sort of got me in trouble for not listening.but he's very thankful for what I did. :)
Derek zarn lol 😂
Y derek
Jonthan Ortiz 😂 hahah nice 👍👍👏😀

You very much Miss Elmyra I truly appreciate that it makes all the hard work doing these videos well worth it have a great night my dear
I feel so conflicted! But the results speak for themselves! Once leather goes you might as well do this until it starts ripping open. Good job!
José you are correct if the people who own this car would have used this amzn.to/2jCHktN the seats would still look new today.
Works like a charm! Simple idea. Be sure to put on extra protectant
I really like the way you did that! Practical, logical and no fussing about! Thanks for sharing!
Our pleasure MM! Thank you for watching and commenting, have a fantastic day my friend. mad Mike
Amazing! Now I’m not afraid of buying a car with cracked leather. Thanks!
Why am I even watching this at 3 in the morning?? None of the leather seats in any of my cars is in this condition.....
Won't even remember it if I need to and will have to look it up again anyway.
LOL
Kronos lmao. it's 3:01am right now and idk why I'm watching this.... I don't even have leather seats!
Kronos mine are not even leather.
Kronos 3:49 For Me. Sounds Like TH-cam Has Set Us Up
I was worried about that red dye transferring over, but after you wiped it down I was sold on it. Gonna look for some tan spray paint and do it on my van seats. Thanks for the video!
I wish I could like this video multiple times, my seats were not in bad condition but now they look new again!!!
Joe Robinson glad we could help my friend :)
awesome !!! thanks
Awesome work!!!
You very much my friend we truly appreciate that have a great weekend thank you for being an awesome subscriber
It works very well. I did it with my BMW M3 leather and now it looks asome.
thank you Ali glad to hear that my friend :)
Ali Sadeghie what color interior is your m3? Trying to match mine but it's a rare dove grey.
Hey mate greetings from Australia. I just used your trick on my holden caprice. It had exactly the same look as the seat you repaired which Is fairly typical of a car that age. My leather is a cream shale colour. Went to the local hardware and grabbed a can of paint as close as possible to mine. Used the lacquer thinner and bang, job done looks a million times better. My best mate is so impressed I’m doing his car this weekend. Thanks for the simple informative video. Your a legend.
That is awesome news Gary and welcome from Australia glad to have you here with us glad that our method works for you if you can share our channel we would truly appreciate that have a great day my friend

Captain Kaos welcome Australia and you are very welcome :)
