Default mercedes 190 sl

here goes my most recent service.

mercedes sl 190 from the year 62 i think





i will do a step by step for the process and i donīt now if i can do it, but i will put the name off the products i use to make you guys a litle better to understand

some photos before the repairs..

the seats were fully of fissures and cracks,















The seats were separated from up / down to doing better the repair and painting



a litle piece from the doors also needed a repair





the leather was previously cleaned then was sanded with sand paper 180,

them they were cleaned with a leather cleaner specific from leather magic to clean all the silicones or dirty that remained in the leather (leather prep)

them the cracks were filled with the leather coumpound



















giving a texture to the repair areas to dissimulate them(water base spray grain)

them they were lightly sanded with sand paper 600 to create a soft finish



dying the leather(leather magic dyes)





the back seats were dyed too because these small spots..



finishig

















assembly started











iīm already doing these jobs almost 3 years ago, and only now iīm capable to do some repairs, thys is a powerfull tool and is very impressive but take care, do not sand the leather if you donīt now how to do the repirs after..

iīm here to help if needed
