At Kartal Auto, we specialize in luxury automotive upholstery restoration, ensuring that every detail reflects elegance, comfort, and craftsmanship. Our latest project was a complete upholstery restoration for an iconic Aston Martin DB7, bringing its interior back to its former glory.
During the restoration, we identified several key issues that needed expert attention. Here’s how we resolved them:
Key Issues Identified & Our Expert Solutions
1. Cracked & Faded Leather Seats
Issue: The leather upholstery had significant cracks, wrinkles, and discoloration due to age and exposure to heat.
Solution: We reupholstered the seats using high-quality Nappa leather, restoring the original color and texture. A UV-protective coating was applied to prevent future fading and wear.
2. Sagging & Loose Headliner
Issue: The headliner fabric was sagging and had detached in several areas due to deteriorated adhesive.
Solution: We replaced the old material with a premium Alcantara headliner, ensuring a luxurious and durable finish.
3. Scratched & Faded Door Panels
Issue: The leather on the door panels was worn out, with visible scratches and fading.
Solution: We restored and re-dyed the panels, giving them a fresh, factory-original look while applying a protective sealant for added longevity.
4. Worn-Out Carpet & Floor Mats
Issue: The floor mats and carpeting had deep stains and signs of wear.
Solution: We installed custom-fit, high-density luxury carpeting, ensuring a clean, plush, and refined cabin feel.
5. Damaged Steering Wheel Leather Wrap
Issue: The steering wheel’s leather wrap was worn out, making the grip uncomfortable.
Solution: We reupholstered the steering wheel with premium leather, featuring hand-stitched detailing for an OEM+ look and better grip.
