When I asked Francisco how he repaired the leather seat in my wifeās car, hereās how he explained it:
- I use this material, heat it with this, use this aluminum block ⦠and add āa little magic.ā š
Why it matters: If you have leather seats that are damaged or cracking, a repair can make them like-new!
- And prevent them from getting worse.
āļøĀ Dig deeper: Francisco taught me a few important things about the āleatherā seats.
- Starting with the fact that the whole seat isnāt leather ā> only the center of the seat is leather.
- The side bolster is vinyl.
- The foam under the vinyl is breaking down from the wear and tear of getting in and out of the driverās seat.
- The break down of the foam makes the vinyl more susceptible to cracking! š¤¦
š„ Reality check: Francisco also broke it to us that the āNapa leatherā thatās included in Subaruās Touring package isnāt really Napa leather.
