Members lostwolf Posted June 19, 2013 Members Report Posted June 19, 2013 I have a friend that has a leather seat. It's a custom color that they ordered. The problem is that one of the seat cushions has a scar right in the middle of it. It is unfortunately the "popular spot" to set due to the layout of the room. They can already tell that the scar is going to rip out over time. What is going to be the best way to repair this area? or better yet prevent it from ripping out with use? Lostwolf Quote
Northmount Posted June 20, 2013 Report Posted June 20, 2013 Should have taken it back or refused delivery to start with. If the cushion can be unzipped, you could try gluing a layer of upholstery leather inside to help reinforced the weak spot. Use a big piece that will fit just inside the stitch lines so you don't get the edges of the patch showing through. Would be a good idea to skive the edges of the patch thin. Best idea is take it back and have the seller fix or replace it. Tom Quote
