Upholstery

Model: Boxster S, Year:2001, Mileage:84,600, Type of use:Street use only
Could you tell me how Porsche colors their leather. Is it drum dyed, oil tanned, or maybe top coated? Is it the same leather on the steering wheel, shift boot, and seats?I'm asking because I use Pecard leather dressing on other leather items and have had great results. I would like to use their products on my cars interior also but need to know how the leather is colored.Thanks for your time,Alex

I have just taken delivery of a 2011 C2S with a full leather leather interior in natural brown. What is the best ongoing maintenance program for the seats and the dash and what products should be used. Also, how imperative is it to keep it out of the sun. Thanks, Jeff Smith.

I had my 63 356B completely repainted. Unfortunately my newly re-upholstery front seat were hit with some overspray of paint. The seat are done in black naugahyde and the paint is silver. Also the paint had dried for several months before it was noticed. Any ideas on how to remove the paint safely without destroying the seats?

The plastic window in my Boxster has a 2-3 inch crack/tear in it. It's not at the seem. Is there any repair for this? Otherwise the top is in great shape.

Hi John- Our car has leather sports seats. The driver's side seat has two full thickness cracks where the foam is visible through the crack. Unfortunately, they are in the bolster area. We're not really ready to re-upholster. How do you suggest we deal with the cracks? If we need to glue in a leather patch, what glue to you recommend? Does the "crack filling" process that I have heard of before work well in this sort of area?ThanksLynn Kessler

I was wondering if you had had any success re-dyeing(or just refreshing) a steering wheel? There are areas that are a little dark (but resist cleaning) and areas that are a little light (from too agressive cleaning) I have seen your positive references to Color Plus. Part of my question also pertains to the option "Natural" I am not sure what the option code 04 "Natural Brown" means as compared to the regular leather.Thanks as always . . .

I purchased this car from the original owner in 1983 with 47,000 miles on the odometer. The interior is original and not in bad shape...the seats have been rebuilt but the skins are original. Knobs are a little worn. I would like to have the interior redone in leather with dimpled inserts in the seat centers. My question...am I diminishing the value of the car by doing this? Is it better to keep the original interior and "refurbish" that as best I can?

I have an '88 911 with "partial leather" seats. Can you please tell me what part is leather. Is it the entire front/top of the seat, with the perforated center and the side bolsters? Also what about the rear seats for this model, are they also leather? In additon what process and products do you recommend for a good intial cleaning and conditioning, as well as ongoing maintenence. These seats have been in storage for a number of years without any treatment. Thank you.

I have a new C4S with flat black leather interior. My prior (2003) C4s also had similar interior, but whenever I applied any kind of leather conditioner, the sheen became slightly shiny. I assume the leather needs conditioning occassionally, is there any product I can use that will keep the flat black factory look?
