Rayna, where do I find this product on this site? Never heard of the Malviani product. Anything would be better than the rip than putting tape on seat! Lol!

Hi Lisa, you can pay $400 for a professional company or do it yourself for less than $10. You can get a leather repair kit that fixes rips and tears, you get the same results and save lots of $$$. Malviani leather repair kit works wonders and they use the same stuff as the professionals. The kits come in colors so all you do is choose the color that matches your leather and then follow the instructions in the kit, super easy!!

hi Leonel, I have rip in my Acura TL and got a quote of approximately $400 to repair. It will be repaired in vinyl not leather…..local upholstery place won’t replace it with leather. Vinyl was way to go.

I am surprised that all of you “professionals” do not just explain what to do!
First, clean the leather with a leather cleaner, follow instructions. When it is dry, GENTLY sand with the sanding paper that comes in your Leather Repair Kit. Now, wipe it down with the microfiber cloth.
Lastly, apply the leather cream, allowing it to “fill in” the cracks, do this until the color matches the rest of your seat—again, read the directions.
Most Important: Moving forward, regularly clean your leather seats with a leather cleaner—not just any cleaner will do because it will dry it out. Then apply a leather conditioner, which will help keep it soft and not dried out.
Sounds like a lot of work, but it is not, just make it a habit and your seats will look great!

“Aside from replacing the seats, there is no way to repair gashes or tears in the leather that make it look flawless.”
You recommended sewing the leather but that doesn’t work. A leather repair kit will work best for this and with great results. Try Prestige Leather Repair Kit for tears, holes and cuts; use Colorvita Leather Repair Color for the cracks. They can be found on amazon.com and malviani.com
