    Default Car seat leather repair

    So I ended up inadvertently damaging the edge of the seat of my car. I didn't realize that a metal button on the back pocket of my pants was bent and had an edge raised up to the side. I noticed the second time when I sat in the car that it scratched along the edge of the seat.

    Thankfully it's not a rip or tear or anything but it definitely looks like something has happened there. Is there a product that I can use to polish the area or something to fix something minor like this? It's not a super big deal but it bothers me.

    Pictures for reference:

    with all that damage, I'd probably only offer half your asking price. it's not worth much anymore.

    $5000! Cash! I come pick up today!

    Or you can get coloured creams/dyes (but watch the stitching) to restore it

    What is that? Some shop that does these? It's an option I guess if I can't figure anything else out. Just a pain scheduling things in Calgary as I am only ever there on weekends.

    Haha. I took it off sale a while ago. Don't think I was ready to part with it, plus not exactly easy selling a car worth that so probably keep a while and bring the price down before trying again.

    No way $5000 is way too low. I would you do $5050.

    I will look into these. I was more hoping for some DIY thing so this might be an option. The scratches kind of overlap to stitches so it will be a little tricky.

    Obvious solution is to upgrade to the new seats from the competition pack.

    I tested out those seats at the Auto show in Edmonton yesterday, and I concur. Worth upgrading for sure.
