There are two ways to eliminate defects: complete replacement damaged elements and restoration of the car interior. To find out which method of car interior repair in Moscow is right for you, our professionals answered the most frequently asked questions.
What is more profitable: complete replacement of damaged elements or restoration of the car interior?
Complete replacement of elements is a rather expensive and not always justified option. It is relevant, as a rule, in the case of very severe damage that cannot be repaired with the restoration of the car interior, or in solving complex problems (for example, a comprehensive repair of a leather interior of a car with full or partial replacement sheathing).
What defects and damage can be eliminated?
These are scuffs, traces of cigarettes, scratches and cracks on the casing. Such damage can be effectively repaired using a high quality paint method. With the help of painting, both the repair of the leather interior of the car and the fabric one are successfully carried out. However, as already mentioned, the restoration of the leather interior of the car is a more demanded service.
Can I repair the upholstery with my own hands?
It is possible, but only if professional materials are used and the work technology is observed. Poor quality products and non-compliance with technology can aggravate the situation. For a quick and guaranteed high-quality car interior repair, it is better to turn to professionals for help.
What are the advantages of local auto interior restoration?
Car interior restoration is a service that is gaining great popularity among car owners in Moscow. And this is easy to explain. Car interior repair in Moscow - effective method elimination of defects, which does not require a large investment of time and money. Thanks to modern technologies, traces of restoration are not noticeable, and the repaired part looks like new. As a rule, in a professional auto workshop, restoration is carried out in just 1-5 hours, and the cost is 3-7 times cheaper than replacing an element. The repair of leather interiors is especially relevant, since the repair of the leather of the car interior is much more affordable than the constriction.
If any of you have read my previous reviews, then you are aware that I have a car - Peugeot 607. A car with a leather interior, which has worn out a little during operation and today looks far from the same as immediately after production iron horse... At first I wanted to give it to a complete restoration, but after learning the cost of this service, I abandoned this idea. I also thought to simply change the interior from gray to ivory, but I would have to change the entire trim, which entailed additional costs. Then he decided to simply repaint the salon, but having learned the technology of this procedure, he gave up this idea. It was decided to drive further, especially since, apart from a couple of large cracks, there was no other critical damage ... And it continued this way until I accidentally stumbled upon a kit on eBay, designed to help in the fight against damaged areas of leather or vinyl products. It was he who was immediately ordered. The seller sent the parcel the next day after payment, however, he did not give a full track for it. But he gave the track SF-Express, which is tracked throughout China. If someone is interested, then you can watch the events on it.
It took about 3 weeks for the parcel to travel from China to Belarus. Despite the fact that no packaging is visible in the seller's photos, the kit came in its original factory box. On front side there is an inscription in both english and french (not sure) languages. So this product is primarily focused on increasing exports to China :)
On the back of the box there is also a mass of inscriptions telling about what is in front of us and why it is needed. 
Inside the box is the "repair kit" itself, which includes 7 jars with something similar to paint, one jar for mixing paints and getting the desired color, a spreading shelf, five pieces of fabric with different textures and instructions for use. 
The weight of one can of paint is 8 grams. Looking ahead, I want to say that this amount will be enough for a long time if the cracks are covered. If the holes are repaired (you can do that), then the resource will significantly decrease due to the large volume of materials used. 
The mass of paint in all jars is approximately the same. Their total weight is 59 grams. 
Outwardly, the paints in the jars look like watercolor diluted with water. They are thick, shiny. Due to its high density, the paint is suitable for creating textured objects - you make the first layer, it hardens, you put a new layer on it, it hardens, and you repeat this procedure until you get the desired thickness. 
There are also 5 pieces of fabric in the kit, which are used to give the repaired surface the desired pattern. The texture of the fabric is different. The fifth piece (which did not appear on the photo - just smooth (like paper), the camera refused to focus on it). 
The instruction is black and white, printed on A4 paper. Conventionally, it can be divided into 2 parts: the first - how to make repairs, the second - which paints should be mixed to obtain the desired color. 
In principle, there is nothing more to say about the composition of the set. So you can proceed to its practical tests.
And all would be fine, only for the time that the package was on the way, I managed to sell my car :) However, a friend has a Peugeot 406 with similar problems, so this did not affect the usefulness of this set. :) Comrade has a black interior, so I didn't have to deal with mixing colors.
This is how the damaged area looked like before the start of restoration work. 
It is not very noticeable in the photo, but the scratches are deep enough, it feels like someone was scratching the chair with coarse sandpaper.
First, we wipe the damaged area with a napkin, clean it of dust and other debris. The instructions say that to improve the effect, you need to degrease the treated area with alcohol. I skipped this step. If there are any protruding pieces of leather, then they should be cut off. After that, you can engage in the selection of the desired color. After its manufacture (mixing), the color of the resulting paint should be slightly darker than the color of the product that is being repaired. This is due to the fact that during the drying process, the paint brightens. As I said, I didn't have to interfere with anything - black, it's black everywhere :) 
We take the stick that comes with the kit, and we hook a little paint on its tip. After that, the paint was gently smeared over the damaged area. It smears very well. Moreover, even a small ball of paint is enough to process a site with a decent area. I hooked the paint with the very tip, and it was enough for an area of about 7 x 10 centimeters, and even still remained. 
It is necessary to smear carefully and quickly. A plasticizer and a hardener are added to the paint. It freezes quickly enough even at low temperatures (it was about +7 in our country). After the entire damaged area is covered with paint, glue a sheet with the desired texture onto it. 
Everything must be done carefully so as not to get caught in the paint. It didn't work out that way, so I had to wash it off, but it washes off very badly (there was no solvent at hand).
We leave the leaf for a while. I left it for about an hour. Then we tear it off. 
Excess paint remains on the sheet, an even layer remains on the treated area. This is what the chair looks like after renovation: 
Not a trace of scratches remained! To be honest, I thought the result would be worse. But how the procedure ended impressed both me and the owner of the car.
Summing up everything that has been written above, I want to say that the repair turned out to be suitable. Yes, this is just paint with the addition of a plasticizer and hardener, but it does the trick. And it does it very well. At the site of the cracks, there is now a smooth, pleasant layer that does not in any way remind of what was there before. Given the low cost and ease of use, I think that such a set will be useful to everyone who has a car with a leather interior. How firmly the paint will hold on the chair and whether it will not wear off - you will only find out with time, but in any case it will not get worse than it was :) So if you are tired of scratches and cracks on the seats in your favorite car, now you will know what to do ;) Well, you can't take off the fact that this set is suitable not only for cars, but also for any other leather or vinyl products :)
This, perhaps, is all. Thank you for your attention and your time.
Hello everyone.
Today's kit will focus on a fairly budgetary leather and / or vinyl repair kit that I purchased from eBay. The purchase was made from another seller, but at the time of publication of the review, the ad is closed, so there is a link to the same, but accidentally found, set above.
