The rear seat of my brother's car had a rather large purple stain from a melted crayon in the tan pleather. I tried every cleaner and solvent known to man to get it out, but the best I could do was get it reduced to a rather large light purple stain. Before I started referring him to a place to have it reupholstered (which I assume would have cost a fair amount), I looked into ways of maybe concealing the stain. I came across a company called ColorBond that makes a leather/vinyl paint for automotive and marine use. They conveniently have color matching formulas for nearly all major manufacturers.
The product worked brilliantly. It matched the existing color flawlessly, and the seat looks like new again. At $16 a can, I couldn't have been happier. Anyway, I after seeing the results I thought this option might be attractive for members on this forum looking to customize their stock seat or third party seat - or even to conceal wear/scratches while keeping the same color. It would be especially convenient if you already know of a color you'd like to match (i.e., the brown interior of your '08 Porsche) then you can just find that color by the VIN with their search tool.
It is pretty cool stuff, and I always like to share success with a product when I can. I hope it can come to some use for a ninetowner look for a custom look.
