Chip,

Very interested in how it goes, am getting ready to do the seats in my L6, once I fix the twisted seat back problem and finish the control arm bushings, keep us posted on the progress?

Hi Greg'
I am in the process of dying my interior.The web site is;www.leathreique.com The owners name is George and the girl who answers the phone is Kristy.There phone # is 904-272-0992.So far I have cleaned the seats with laquer thinner,use their rejuniving oil and cleaner.The seats came out as smooth as a baby's ass.I also wet sanded the seats with 32o paper because the first time I put the oil on it didn't soak in.The seats were dyied before.Just give Kristy a call(I think owners daughter)and she will take you through all the steps.
Merry Christmas
Chip
Ps Its takes a lot of time.I'll let you know how they turn ouy
I read recently an article about the process someone went through to re-dye the leather in his BMW. It was very detailed with addrewss of someone who mixes the dye. He used Laquer thinner to clean and stript he paint. Can someone tell me where I saw this or send me a copy of the process.
Thanks
