Seat refurb.

[beemz]

Hi Beemz - I'm new here, but am in the process of refurbishing an Orinoco - do you know the name of the leather in these cars? I did contact Colourlock with my VIN, but they said as it's an Individual, they don't know the colour. How did you go about finding the correct code/mix? Bren

Hi Brendon, If you send an email to Atilla at Colourlock he will sort you with the right stuff. He will probably request a sample to match to, at least an inch square. I managed to get a decent piece ( roughly 3" x 1") from the base of the back of the seat which is tucked away. It is easier to remove the seat to do this. They will match to that piece when they receive it and let you know what you need to do a great job. From my experience it is all about tecnique to get an even coat and it definately improves as you do further coats. If you need any more advice i am happy to help or i'm sure there will be other members that have done this process am have more experience

Hi, @beemz the seats look lovely. I have an Orinoco as well, and would like to refurb the seats. Tried ColourLock but cannot get through (answer machine) . Did they give you a colour code/reference I could quote please?

ColourLock has an ebay store if I remember, purchased from them twice. Tannin red. Perfect match. It might be amazon but it's one of tye two.
