Sorry but at the time I did not have a HPLV gun with pigment dyes to color match. I've actually learned quite alot since I did that detail but lets call a spade a spade and quit trying to tear apart what was a great save on a dealer hack job. I'm so very glad we have so many leather "Experts" on this site now... Where the heck were you guys back when I was asking questions about this?

To the OP.. what I did was what my client wanted me to do. Your client should have a new seat put in with only have 44k on it. Seems a bit ridiculous for a seat to wear out that quickly. Hopefully they understood the mess you cleaned off.
Sorry, just stating the facts. Unless Sem has changed their product line, then it isn't a good product. I am not criticizing your work just the product. I have been around for over a year, but I can't catch all of the threads.

Here are the manufacturers that I use:

Re: Painted SEAT!!!

SEM has always left an imprint in my mind of what the dealer lot lizards used to do crappy spray dye jobs on beat up cars. I wonder if the people who specialize in professional leather restoration use this stuff?
