    Even though the Volvo seats are well worn, it's still a huge improvement on their condition.
    Do you think that Clyde's would work on darker leather products, like a heavily soiled gimp suit for example? 🤔

    I did something similar with a old honda jazz leather gearknob a few years back. Being black it was much easier to get a even colour. Good video though, im sure it will really help someone out

    It's a shame that car manufacturers are moving away from leather as it can last a very long time if well maintained and even if neglected can be brought back to life with ease. I'm no pro but did redye an entire car from black to a natural leather color and have fixed a few discolored areas.
    Can't really do that realistically with fabric seats.

    Can you spot treat seats or will it cause some obvious color mismatch if the Clyde’s isn’t a perfect match? I just don’t want to turn a small job into recoloring the entire seat.

      I’ve rarely ever uploaded more than twice per month to be fair. Sometimes it can take a week to organise a video (weather/product arrivals/car availability etc) then between 7-10 days to actually put it together myself but regardless, I’m almost always working on a video one way or another.

    This would've been ideal for the cream leather seats in my old Discovery if I still had it, it's tempting to go out and buy an old Range Rover just to try this stuff out. Well, it would be a good excuse in my mind.
