At Kartal Auto, we are passionate about preserving the beauty and heritage of classic automobiles. Our recent Aston Martin 2-Liter Upholstery Restoration was a perfect example of our commitment to excellence. This iconic vehicle required meticulous attention to detail to restore its luxurious interior while maintaining authenticity.
During the restoration, we encountered several key challenges, but our expert team implemented tailored solutions to ensure the highest level of craftsmanship.
Challenges & Expert Solutions
1. Cracked & Faded Leather Upholstery
Issue: The original leather seats had developed cracks, discoloration, and a rough texture due to age and wear.
Solution: We carefully selected premium, period-correct leather to match the original style. Our team conditioned and restored salvageable areas while replacing irreparable sections with hand-stitched, high-quality leather for a seamless finish.
2. Worn & Compressed Seat Padding
Issue: The seat cushions had lost their shape and comfort due to deteriorated padding.
Solution: We rebuilt the seats using high-density foam and traditional horsehair padding to restore their original support and luxurious feel, ensuring long-lasting comfort.
3. Frayed & Stained Carpeting
Issue: The floor carpeting was heavily worn, stained, and had begun to disintegrate in certain areas.
Solution: We installed high-grade wool carpeting, cut and tailored to fit the original layout. The new carpeting not only enhanced aesthetics but also improved insulation and comfort.
4. Damaged Door Panels & Trim
Issue: The door panels had peeling leather, loose trim, and visible wear.
Solution: We reupholstered the door panels using matching leather and precision stitching, ensuring a factory-original look and a durable, refined finish.
5. Weathered Dashboard & Interior Accents
Issue: The dashboard covering had developed cracks, and the wooden trim had lost its luster.
Solution: We carefully restored the dashboard’s leather wrapping and refinished the wooden trim using period-accurate techniques, ensuring a smooth, polished, and authentic appearance.
