Hi does anyone know of someone mobile near oldham who can come out and re spray leather seat's in disco 3 to make them look nice and new?
Cheers folks
 
once upon a time, I thought leathers seats in a car would be the dogs swingers.

then I got a very plush all leather, all singing & dancing Honda Legend 3.2 V6 flying machine.
the seats were cold and hard in the winter, and like an oven hot in the summer when you got in....
hated them....
time rolls on and flying machine flew away..
eventually got replaced with another flying machine, a lexus... but seems someone told lexus (toyota) to stay away from full leather, but fit part leather and suede like alicantra (or whatever its called)
result ??
so much better when you get in..if its hot - crank up the aircon, if its cold, crank up the seat warmers.......
the aircon is always set to 20c so it adjusts to suit any environment.
 
Respray them with what, a cow
Cows don't come in the same colours as seats, they are mostly black and white on the outside, and food coloured inside.
Leather, on the other hand, used to be made from "Connollies" which are now extinct or bankrupt.
Nowadays anyone can (esp. Japs and Septics)(ooh and Krauts and Frogs) put pig hide in cars and sell them to ISIL members.

Back to post, there is a firm called Bradleys who do DIY kits, OK for a quick tart up but no better IMHO
 
From wikipedia:

"An attempt to expand into the American market in the 1990s failed badly and Connolly Leather ceased trading in June 2002. However, in 2003, Jonathan Connolly established C B Leather Ltd and resumed the manufacture and production of high quality leather and now sells under both C B Leather and Connolly"

Not from wikipedia:

I used to look after the fire alarm at their Ashford plant, massive place, but the last time I went there (around 2001), it was just an empty shell, with a few skips of offcuts rotting in the car park.
