Hello, Everyone, this is our Glad it's Friday video! See How we Paint Silicone th-cam.com/video/Sp6HGSSQGXk/w-d-xo.html This works for leather or vinyl. This is Part 1 of a 2 Part repair series. The second video will be out this coming Tuesday. We hope this helps you make your seating look new again. *****Also, don't forget to pick up your SPC's Swag before it's gone...once this design is gone it will NEVER be available again!***** Here is a Special PROMO CODE to save YOU a couple bucks teespring.com/stores/sweet-project-cars-swag?pr=LASTCHANCE
Wow. you know all the tricks. thanks and have a great weekend!
This was great, is there a video on painting a steering wheel?
MEK I painted a steering wheel using regular rustoleum and got amazing results. It was on a navigator and I was able to fix sun damage by lightly sanding and then painting with a few light coats.
What if you actually have a hole through the seat?
@@bitemefoker My question exactly. I used SPC's technique for sprucing up some nasty looking cracked and faded leather in my mom's Caddie....and it came out looking like brand new. After doing that, i then discovered about a quarter sized hole in the backseat. So, SPC.....do we need to put a patch over that hole, or will a silicone film as in your video do the trick? Thank for the great videos!
The best leather repair video i have watched in youtube
Thank you very much, glad you liked it. Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Agreed! I was mesmerized through the whole thing.
How many have you watched?
What did he use as his Adhesion Promoter?
Try watching colour lock leather repairs. They are awesome
Man, I have to come here and leave this comment saying "Thank You" for this video, I'm in a project restoring my 1999 lexus LX 470, I applied this process and it's looking amazing.
Thank you very much
Glad we could help Edivaldo! Thank you so much for watching and sharing, we truly appreciate it, hope you have a great day and all the best on your project my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I was about to tackle reupholstering the entire back deck over the engine compartment of our 2004 boat. I am SO excited to try this instead! I just found your channel a few days ago. I spent 3 days cleaning the interior of my car, it went from disgusting chocolate milk carpet and melted crayons to looking brand new. I didn't think it was possible for my Edge to look this great again, the last thing to fix is my leather seat. I have already told 3 people about your channel. Thanks for all the amazing tips! My husband was SHOCKED when he saw how great the car looked. :)
That is awesome Heather so glad we could help you out have a great night thanks for being with us mad Mike sweet project cars
Sweet Jesus! That came out absolutely beautiful. Not only was your video short n sweet, but I went to the description box and you've included links for everything! You made my job so much easier! Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you! Glad to help! Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Going to try this process on my wife

Brother you should seriously have your own show on tv. You make it all so simple. People with older cars that still run well would love your videos. Long time subscriber here.
Mrv2u Thank you very much and we appreciate you being a loyal subscriber not sure if you know what you have been elected as one of Sweet project cars charter members congratulations my friend
Sweet Project Cars it’s a honor my brother. But what does it mean lol? Does that mean I can be the next Julio voice over guy lol?
How durable is this?
How does it hold up to routine cleaning ?
Or is this just for resale
Daily use ?
Aw yeah chur bro. I was jist doin my ford leather seats exactly like this 👍
Thank you sweet project cars. Diy er here . You by far are the best. Look forward to ever video. Subscriber for a few months now. Used many of your tips and tricks. Going to do the seat repair. Have a 2007 equanox looks just as bad as the one you just did. Great job !
I cannot wait to repair a small worn spot in our "new" 2011 vehicle. I was considering how to do it, as I will repair leather jackets etc, and have that pretty down pat, the seat repair needs what you have shown in the video this is brilliant. Thank you!
Wow! I’m very impressed I’ve watched many videos on fixing seats and this is by far the best I’ve seen! Great job guys!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for watching and sharing Jordan, we really appreciate it. Hope you have a fantastic day my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Great video , 30 years in the auto business and still learning new tips. Many thanks
i just bought a 2001 subaru outback (18 years old) with leather interior and the leather is amazing for it's age...it is cool to think that you could take old seats like that and make em nice again..so cool
Trying to repair my 01 seats 💀
Subarus had good leather from the start, Volvos on the other hand have used garbage leather ever since ford bought the Volvo company. ,
This video makes me appreciate the MBTex on my '08 MB ML350. Still perfect despite essentially no care in 11 yrs. No crinkles, no tears, no stains. Maybe others are better, but it's been impressive to me.
I’m so glad I saw this video. My king ranch leather is about to look brand new 🙂
I don't even own leather seats but this video is that satisfying
Thank you very much we are glad we could help even if you don’t have leather you’ll learn a few things every time you watch something at least we do have an awesome day
Wow! I can't believe how good they turned out! I would never guess that silicone caulk was used! You are a magician!
Wow! Thank you sooo much! The silicone is truly a secret weapon. I will attempt this on my boat seats once I get the color match correct. I really appreciate how short you made this video vs. all the information. Thanks again.
Glad we could help, Rick! Thank you so much for watching and sharing, we truly appreciate it, have a great week my friend and all the best on your project. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Excellent video. Thank you for your time. You’ve got me considering trying this on my black 96 fleetwood seats
That looks fantastic. I need to do this to the driver's seat of my 1996 Mustang GT.
As always, good, good GOOD stuff! What makes it GREAT are the laughs along the way.
You do excellent work Mike! Thank you so much for helping us all with your great ideas and videos.
Good deal glad we could help always a pleasure thanks for being here with us mad Mike sweet project cars

Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge.🇧🇷
I bought a vette years ago - had them fix the leather interior - and when I got it back it looked brand new. I never knew how they did it so fast. Thanks for posting.
Frowntown hey don’t mind me asking how much did they charge and where did you go ? I’m trying to get my seats done but I feel like I can’t do it my self.
How has the silicone and paint held up so far?
this is the best leather repair video i have seen so far.
That transition in the beginning about the materials was mad funny
LOL, thanks for watching Alexis, we appreciate it. Hope you have a great weekend. mad Mike the hammer SPC

Socks With Sandals w
For real, paint job and seat redo, one could flip any last leg and give it new life. Heading to the barrio now
Awesome, you did a great job. I will try that on my newly purchased used car.
Wow...the silicone thing actually worked and worked well...Easy...I have a 93 vette with only 40.000 miles on it and is almost pristine condition with white leather seats...my parents dog jumped in my car poking a whole in the passenger seat...a couple of years ago i bought a leather repair kit only making the area on the seat worse then it was...I tried this method with the silicone and it worked...I like the idea that it doesn't have to be perfect as it will blend in with the texture of the rest of the seat...Clean ...fast and easy..I ended up doing the other small cracks in both seats...you can't even tell....
Chris that is awesome to hear my friend good deal thank you for sharing your results have a great night
tools are all in the SHOWMORE of the video description
*If you don't look at it during sitting, it will last for-ever!* 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
You think I can use the same process on boat seats ?
Will it work for my wifes butt?

Wow definitely gonna try this with my "new" vinyl couch i just got it has small bits of cracking everywhere
Hey glad I found your comment, did you try it? My vinyl couch is cracking and small bits everywhere also. Please reply when you can. Thanks!
Hello, did you try this already? Just wondering if I should give it a go for a vinyl couch sectional.
Did this work for you and hold up? I am going to try on my leather couch, but wanted to hear from someone first.
@@divakim206 Did you try it?
@@ieshalee595 sadly I have not but plan to in the next 30 days. Once I find the correct color match, I'll get it ordered. Are you planning on doing yours any sooner? I'd love to find out how yours turned out.
Dude, i soooooo need to do this to my driver seat in my yukon xl. I wish i could just drive it to ur shop lol. Thank u very much for all the sweeeeeet diy stuff uve helped me with 👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸
I love the fixes show simple practical and effective. No nonsense detailing and restoration info.
Thank you Shawn we truly appreciate that have a great day Mike sweet project cars
Love your channel and low cost no BS approach to restoring cars. Was curious if you’ve ever tried using a colored RTV instead of clear on a repair like this? Was thinking Black RTV on a black seat but would it really matter? Anyway, thanks for your awesome vids! Jim
Jim EC we use the black on darker seating works well...thanks for asking
Unbelievable repair you did this man! Excellent work
Very much my friend we truly appreciate that
that's amazing. I don't currently have a need for this but, I'm glad I watched it. You have done amazing work.
Thank you very much! Thanks for being here with us, we really appreciate it! Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I want a one year update.
Chuck, just like you it will last forever....
@@Rot05 - Sit on it and you shall see! If you don't look at it, it will last for-ever! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I had a similar process done on an old Oldsmobile years ago. Looked great after 3 years of baking in the LA sun. AND it felt good too.
for me it came off in 2 weeks
H B what happened
Man that really turned out nice 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸.
Ive got an 01 yukon xl with just about same color leather everywhere & i can see where its gna be forming soon. Prob in the next cpl yrs.thanks for the info .
great job ... I also do these jobs in Italy and you get wonderful results .... American leather is difficult to paint due to the high content of silicone that makes the skin shiny ... we prefer skin from us opaque ... still good work
Wow you have inspired me. Only technical proper video on the internet PERIOD!
Thank you David we truly appreciate that mad Mike out
Wow! I'm going to do my 2001 Galant GTZ leather seats. It's my project car. Great video
This is badass!! I have all the materials on hand (I have a huge crafting habit). I know the 100% silicone is a little smelly, but it would be so worth it to repair the leather in a car I just got. Thanks man!! 👏♥️
He just Got himself a subscriber. That looks brand spanking new!!!! Great vid!!!!!
Thank you very much King! Welcome to our site! We truly appreciate all of our great subscribers. Have a great day my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
This IS the proper way to repair your vinyl or leather. I did this to a BMW 645ci on my channel and it came out flawless and lasted 2 years i had it until sold
Awesome! Thank you so much for watching and sharing your fantastic results, we really appreciate it, have a great week my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I have never seen such a good repair.
Thank you very much, glad you liked it! We appreciate the view and comment, hope you have a sweeeeet week my friend. mad Mike & team
I sprayed my vinyl boat seats with the prep and vinyl dye/paint. Came out looking like new.
Awesome Wes! Thanks for sharing. Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I need to repair the very top back of my pontoon seats where the black cover baked them. How is everything holding up? I also have a couple of holes in the foam on the top of the seats. Is permatex the only thing that I need to fill the holes? The holes are probably an inch to inch and a half deep by about the same width.
I sold it years ago but I'm sure there is good info on YT. There is a DAP brand caulk that is good for filling holes and taking paint. They use it for leather repair.
That is possibly the best seat repair I have ever seen your a life saver

Wow! That’s something I’d never even thought would be possible.. thanks for the tip!! 👏🏻🙏🏻
You’re very welcome thank you for sharing
I gave up...since I kept drinking the alcohol before I could apply it to the seat.....
Luka Dragunov ya that could slow your progress for sure :)
hahahahahaha
No, you died! That's DENATURED alcohol.
Lol, lucky that he didn't use beer though. If he does beer, i give up right now.
Killing me... Whoolarious!
Damn that really makes me wanna do that to the seats in my car mine are in pretty good condition for being 10 years old but still wouldn’t mind them looking brand new like that
Holly crap dude! You are a freaking genius at this. I am trying this crap on my car. Hopefully, I can get half as good a result! Thank you for sharing this!

I have a '07 Acura TL I just bought Monday. Its half taken apart right now but after I get it back together I need to focus on the rips in the leather seats! Thanks for this video! I am hoping I can fix then to atleast prevent them from getting worse!
ashley it will be a great project for you thats for sure thanks for sharing mike
Thanks bud! I dont know Jack about leather, but that was very cool. I'm gonna try that on a few places on my couch also.
Great vid! Was wondering though, for someone who isn't comfortable with their ability to do this on their own, what would be the typical cost to have it done? And how would you go about finding someone who does this kind of work rather than the reupholstered route?
Jeff Parkin great question this is a DIY project so if you decide to have someone else do it it may be best just to buy the manufactures seat covers and replace them with new, it will be less costly for you but if you do tackle the project you can save a boatload of money with the DIY we share here.
That LVP is amazing stuff. I’ve touched up my BMW black seats with it and it’s holding up very well and doesn’t look unmatched at all.
Shane Sexton did you use Ford Black or BMW Charcoal for your seats? I have 2002 black BMW seats also. Great video
BobinBC I used BMW black 258, I only touched up areas with a q tip and it’s blending perfectly. I also painted a dash trim piece that was peeling. So close to perfect match.
You are a master at your craft sir... well done. Thanks for sharing!
Happy to help Jeremy!! Thank you so much for watching and for the kind comment, have a fantastic weekend my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
