    That's no good. Perhaps try getting on the turps - you'll feel better. :)

    I normally have zero reactions to anything but this time everything that was listed as a side effect I got !

    Been sleeping a LOT, vomitting a LOT, severe headaches, loss of appetite (not a bad thing for a fat bastard like me), blurred vision, etc etc etc

    Doctors, no wonder I don't trust them .... the worst part is I have such little energy that I don't feel like taking the 355 for a drive :(

    Steve, BM leather creations doesn't just doesn't repaint/re-dye leather. Sure, he's an absolute genius when it comes to colour matching but he does first rate repairs too.

    All the advice provided so far is spot on but you need to know exactly what kind of leather you have before you can undertake the correct course of action.

    Not all leather is equal and that also includes connolly hides.

    Is your leather colour vacced (that means, the colour/pigment runs through the entire hide) or surface painted?

    If colour vacced, then hide food will almost (note - almost) made the scratches invisible and so all you need is new high quality foam in the bolster and re-stitched.

    Good luck with it all but the best course of action is keep the original leather if not worn through, re-foam with the highest quality product, re-stitch and treat with hide food if colour vacced.

    I put twenty million* coats of autoglym on my seats and they turned out sensationally. They didn't need repadding though.





    *Could be a slight exaggeration.
