Frequently Asked Questions

What leather damage can be repaired without replacement?
Scuffs, scratches, cracking, color fading, dye transfer, and worn piping can all be repaired and re-dyed in place. Seats stay installed and the aircraft stays available, at a fraction of reupholstery cost.
Can you match discontinued leather colors?
Yes. We custom-blend dyes on site to match existing hides, including older colors no longer offered by the OEM, and blend the repair area so it disappears into the surrounding panel.
How long does leather restoration take?
Typical seat repairs are completed in one hangar visit, with cure time managed before crew or passenger use. Larger cabin-wide re-dye projects are scoped around your schedule, often overnight.
