0 Rich Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 You can minimize those, but you're not going to get them out. Best thing you may be able to do is just to treat them well with Leather Conditioner or with the new Interior Protection Paste. Saw a post on FB a while back where a guy used steam to stretch his seat covers as much as he could, but they he bought leather paint to fill in the cracks/wrinkles. Never heard of this stuff so I can't say why you would use paint on your leather, but the results were pretty good to look at. My opinion is that by putting a paint on fabric, at some point in the future that stuff is going to dry out and start flaking off. I would just start a good moisturizing routine for your seats. And maybe put a towel down when the dog is in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the surface is prepped correctly the paint won't flake off. AMMO did a video of a complete color change interior that lays out the extreme scenario. There are also a few companies that sell new skins for the seats. From what I've seen it's quicker if you are handy with tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
