I am currently looking to restore some of the worn areas of my leather interior, particularly the drivers seat. I am being told that the colour is black but I am not totally convinced,:confused1: It looks slightly tinted with grey. before I spend any money on a product that will not match, would anyone know what colour options there might be?:scared:

Unfortunatley most leather came as black as standard, but over years each zeds interior will have faded, whether from sun light or just wear and tear.

A few options to consider.

Either get some new leather covers made up and do all the seats. pricey

or get some leatherette covers made up, not leather buy cheaper.

something i found out, reach under the front seats to where the runners are, and try and locate some of the excess original leather that would not have been trimmed when made, cut a small 1" section out of this, this will be in original untouched condition. take the sample to a upholsterers, if they are any good, a dye can be made up to exact match on a roll of new leather. or repair panels. for sections such as the bolster.

As standard its not black - according to Gliptone and the leather renovation kit they supply it is "very dark grey"

Many thanks guy's.:cool3: I will take up your suggestions in the new year. I am looking forward to trying the leather dye and hopefully bringing the drivers seat back to something near new. I'll post some before and after photo's as I go.:thumbup1:
