In todays video, we show the process on how we repair severe damage on the center console of a VW Golf. This can be a common issue as this spot and other get constant abuse from a drivers elbow.
This one not only wore, but also cracked open and the edges of the damage were peeling up. We walk you through the process and show what kind of results we can get when repairing damaged leather and vinyl.

Fat elbows slobs smh
Eight people don't own cars I guess watching
To much work then to just Re skin it
Great work sir, greetings from Greece.
i hav some of these cracks on my sofa is it the same method of fixing
The thing is that, it looks ok on camera. In person, you'll see that the filled up part of the material is going to loose it's pattern. It's going to be smooth. Not as the surrounding parts.
Also a repair is not going to last long. The heat inside the car slowly going to shrunk the filler, no matter what.
In my personal experience it doesn't last a year. It won't crack, but the filler is going to shrunk and it's going to look just as bad as it looked before.
If you just want to sell your car quickly, you could do this.
Otherwise if you want to have a nice seat, you have to change the leather or whatever you have on it or the whole seat, lid.
And I've done it twice.
It looked far better than this one and it's going to look bad again.
(If you store in a garage and never take it out for a ride. It's going to be fine.)
What’s the name of the texture spray please
Hey Josh, I curious about the iron you’re using with the Teflon mat. What brand and where can I get one? I haven’t seen one like that from any of my distributors. Thanks!
This is Jamaica loved the video good job 😍😍😍😍
Could you make a repair with the 3m kit? Most of us don’t have the equipment you use
