England 2014 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Loire Blue

Had my Lexus one recovered by these folks, the job looked factory original, perfect matching leather, was around £200 IIRC

It was half wood which I hate so had the whole lot covered, and yes makes it feel like a new car, shame Powerful have more than doubled the price they want for a recovered one...

Try cleaning your existing one first with Dr Leather wipes. You'll be surprised at the result. The amount of filth on mine was bonkers. Took about 3 or 4 separate wipes and now I do it monthly with a single wipe.
Try it. Lot cheaper as a first pass Thumbs Up 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

Thanks Rob,
I used to use a Mr. Clean pad on my L322 and a lot of dirt came up but it did not have that new look so i figured the only way to get to look like the would be too have the leather redone except I don't know anyone here who does it? Mike

It didn’t remove any dye? Is it the magic eraser? I’ve seen those remove dye bc they are actually pretty abrasive 2014 FF Autobiography 5.0 SC

I used it very lightly. I dampened it 1st and then just went over the leather a few times. You could see the oil residue from hands come off the pad but not the dye. I have the piano wood as well so am being more careful to try and keep my hands on that.
