At Kartal Auto, we specialize in luxury car seat repair and restoration, ensuring every detail meets the highest standards of comfort, style, and durability. Our recent project—a seat repair and restoration for an Aston Martin V12 Vanquish—is a perfect example of how we can bring back the luxury and precision of high-end automobiles.
During the restoration, we identified several key issues that needed our expert attention. Here’s how we addressed them:
Key Issues Identified & Our Expert Solutions
1. Cracked & Faded Leather Upholstery
Issue: The leather on the seats showed signs of cracking and fading due to sun exposure and general wear, which affected the overall luxury feel.
Solution: We carefully removed the damaged leather and replaced it with premium Nappa leather, restoring its smooth texture and deep color. A UV-resistant coating was applied to protect the leather from future fading and damage.
2. Worn-Out Seat Cushions
Issue: The foam cushioning in the seats had degraded over time, leading to discomfort and poor lumbar support.
Solution: We replaced the old seat foam with high-density memory foam, ensuring a firm yet comfortable feel that provides optimal support during long drives.
3. Loose & Torn Stitching
Issue: The stitching on the seats had begun to come undone in several areas, creating gaps and affecting the aesthetic quality of the upholstery.
Solution: Our experts restitched the seams with automotive-grade thread, reinforcing the areas that needed extra attention, while maintaining a clean, factory-quality finish.
4. Scratches & Scuffs on Seat Panels
Issue: The leather seat panels had visible scratches and scuff marks from use, detracting from the car’s overall aesthetic.
Solution: We performed a deep leather cleaning and restoration, followed by color restoration to bring the leather back to its original condition. The finish was sealed with a protective layer to prevent future scuffs.
5. Malfunctioning Seat Adjustments
Issue: The seat adjustment mechanisms were stiff and not functioning smoothly, making it difficult for the driver to find a comfortable seating position.
Solution: We repaired the seat adjustment mechanisms, ensuring they operated smoothly and efficiently, providing the driver with precise and effortless control over the seat position.
