1989 Porsche 911/964 Carrera - Black Sports seats restored to Metropole blue to match interior.

This beautiful 1989 Porsche 911/964 in metropole blue, was getting an upgrade. The original front seats were standard tombstones and in very poor condition. The owner had sourced a lovely pair of period 964 black sports seats in better condition. The brief was to leather restore the black front seats in Metropole blue to match the rest of the interior.

The front seats were removed from the vehicle and the metropole blue interior was colour matched and leather colourant mixed. The original leather on the seats was then restored using the professional process, this involves chemically stripping off the leathers original coatings. The leather is then chemically strengthened and filled where required, before applying 4 very fine layers of Metropole blue leather colourant and then 4 fine layers of a clear satin sealant. This provides the hard wearing and water proof layer.

Some sound deadening was added to bind the cracked original and all carpets professionally steam cleaned.

The end result was great with the car looking original and the interior having a lovely patina. It looked just how it should have, back in the early nineties.

The owner and I were very pleased with the results.
