It all depends on how deep the scratches are. Once the surface of the leather has been damaged, depending on how deep the damage is, it can be repaired. The repair depends on the skill of the technician.

Without looking at the actual area, I can't give you a proper diagnosis. Can you take a picture and post? If it's light scuffs, you can make it less visible if you routinly clean and condition the leather. If the problem is more severe, try and find a local upholstry restorer that is familiar with your particular vehicle. Hope this steers you in the right direction.

 

Moe:

How do I get my stock exhaust tips on my 997 to shine the way it did from the factory? It's kind of a dull brushed texture now, wasn't it once shiny?

 

I'll do a write up on this topic. Great questions.

 

Thanks, mine are almost brown. I could get them powder coated black or taken to a shop to be chromed but I'm hoping somewhere under the layers of build up are a set of shiny tips

 

There is....

 

Hi Moe;
I'm a detailer in training i need you're advice on how can i illuminate like a film layer on top of the black paintyou can pm me

 

Confused on the question. Do you mean eliminate the film, as in removing, or illuminate the film, as in lighting it better for seeing?

 

Yes Illuminating the film.

 

Knowing what to look for on the paint comes with time and practice. It's almost like a mind trick. You must look at the paint on many different dimensions. What you'll see under certain lights, you may not see under other lighting conditions. The standard lighting you should have is florescent. Make sure you have ample tubes in a given area. This light allows you to better see the surface of the finish for the deeper scratches, rock chips, oxidation, etc.

For lighting to greatly bring out swirls, you need halogens. Ideally you'd have both halogen and florescent at a flip of a switch. But, a 1000W tripod will help. Hope this answers your question.

 

Moe;Thanks for you're advice, how can I take car of this problem?
