Any recommendations on a product to touch up Jet leather? The vehicle I am looking at has a couple of scuffs on the seat, not torn, just discoloration worn down to the white under layer. Is there a color match dye or conditioner available? If I don't find an easy DIY option I'll take it to a leather repair expert.

 

try this.

There are professionals out there who can repair the seats to original. I cannot vouch for this guy but found him on a quick search

 

+1. Whatever you might do trying to fix it may make it that much more difficult for somebody else to fix it right. Let a pro do it.

 

If you want to have a go at DIY, I have used Gliptone Liquid Leather Scuffmaster on my car seats with great results, see here: scuffmaster-leather-touch-up-kit
When ordering a kit just specify it's for a car then fill in the details in the boxes that pop up, and you'll get a perfect colour match.

 

Got my F-type detailed this weekend. There was a spot/possible burn on the passenger seat leather.

Any other recs on leather DIY repair? It is only about 1 cm x 1cm.

 

Seat Doctors, see here: https://www.seatdoctors.com/diy-leather-dye/
I recommend them very highly, I had a large wear patch on the driver's seat bolster, and I had a lot of trouble finding anyone who made the repair dye in the right colour, see this thread: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f...estion-178904/ (which I never got around to updating).
Thanks to a tip by someone on the forum I found Seat Doctors and swapped some emails with Andy, long story short I bought a bottle of "red zone" dye from him and used it on the wear patch, it worked perfectly and now the seat bolster looks almost like new.

 

That was me
I'm glad he was able to ship to you!

 

Yep, thanks for the tip, sorry I couldn't find the thread where you brought it up.
Andy first of all thought he couldn't ship a bottle of liquid to Oz but then he found out he could and he worked out that the cost wouldn't be excessive so we went from there.
