Repairing Cracks in Leather Interiors

Model: Lexus IS MK 2 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Checks and maintenance

If the leather interiors appear worn, with cracks and small tears, you can perform a complete restyling of the interiors by purchasing specific repair kits online; these kits contain everything needed for DIY repairs, from filler putty to spatulas, glue, and final dye (it is recommended to consult colourcare24). Start with a thorough cleaning of the upholstery, then proceed to the actual repair; insert reinforcing fabric under the tear, securing it with glue; then apply the filler putty, sand down the excess, and apply the dye with a sponge (between various steps, dry with a heat gun); finally, protect with a sealant and nourishing cream.
