For leather dye I have been using Seat Doctor which is easy to use and has worked well.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Step 1/2 is done - seat doctors did the trick for the handle part.

Curious what you all use to fill or paint these in. They�re not very deep

You�re probably going to refinish that whole section.

POST 3Original post

Easy Off oven cleaner is the best I've found for removing the soft touch paint.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

And how bout to do the actual painting once it�s been removed?

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

How about using sandpaper to prep the area? Are you guys doing color matching or just getting straight black?

POST 7Original post

You can also find for pretty cheap brake handles on ebay that are in pretty good shape that may make it even easier. Or use as a test case to see how it turns out. For leather dye I have been using Seat Doctor which is easy to use and has worked well. https://www.seatdoctors.com/ If you want to go the more expensive route with paint, primer and plastic pre primer stick stuff, you can go with Automotive Touchup. https://www.automotivetouchup.com/spray_paint.asp

Do I need all the prep, adhesion helper and clear coat stuff that they�re trying to upsell me or just the paint is fine for this job?

I don't think so. I've only ever used the paint. I came across it from the recommendation of other RLers.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys. Step 1/2 is done - seat doctors did the trick for the handle part. The leather is looking much better. Question about the bottom part. As the paint begins to flake off, it looks like it�s actually metal underneath rather than plastic. Will ColorBond work on that?
