I should say, my wife cleaned the seats THREE TIMES with Saddlesoap, then we used the shoe polish, polished and buffed the seats, then we slathered mink oil on them, then polished and buffed again.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Does anyone know if the back between the bolsters can be removed and some of the stiching has seperated can it be restored. We restored the leather with KIWI saddle soap cleaner, Black shoe polish and Mink oil which turned out really nice except for the problems with the seat itself.
Sorry - don't know the answer to your question, but it seems like any stitching could be repaired if in the right hands. Won't the shoe polish rub off on one's clothes??? Nice slippers, by the way
My slippers have become my shoes! My wife calls me "Slipperman." The shoe polish over time probably will rub off on your clothes but it is polished and buffed to remove any excess. We cleaned the seats with Saddlesoap. I should say, my wife cleaned the seats THREE TIMES with Saddlesoap, then we used the shoe polish, polished and buffed the seats, then we slathered mink oil on them, then polished and buffed again. The results, as you can see, are dramatic. We are quite pleased.
sorry my question wasn't clear.
my left booster on the drive seat is kind of worn like yours. but i have scar in the leather already. do u have scar there? and how you fix it?
thanks
did u do something like this?
that back bolster comes out....there are three white plastic clips that clip rather snugly over a round piece of wire that runs along the top of the bolster....you can reach in there with both hands, one from each side....slide your hands up towards the top and try to feel those plastic clips up there...and unclip them one at a time. I know this because two of my clips were broken and the whole bolster flopped forward exposing the wire frame insides of the seatback. I didn't take it all the way out, so I don't know about how it's attached to the bottom.
Ok tried KIWI dye which has a sponge tip, it looks promising I will let it soak overnight then clean and see if it needs more at present It's hard to tell where the problem area was. $3.50 at Walgreens
Mine is just rubbed off but no deep gashes I just see it that it as "better then it was".
I do not see how the top clips come off, do they turn to one side, does it get uncliped from bottom then lifted off the top clips? I do not want to brak something.
Well got the back off and was hoping to take the leather off to have it resown "what's the trick" on removing that part? Nevermind I think I will take it down to have them figure it out and repair. Thanks for the help everyone.
