Leather cleaning
The starting point for every restoration. On dirty leather no colour or protector will hold.
More about this serviceFrom Chojnice and the Tuchola Forest we get off-road vehicles — with interiors that have been through mud, sand and wet clothing.
In a car used off-road, leather wears differently from a city car. Sand pressed into the seams acts like sandpaper, wet clothing leaves water marks, and moisture gets into the stitching and rots the thread from within.
With this kind of use it's the seams that go first, not the surface. We re-stitch them and, if needed, colour the thread so the new stitching doesn't stand out from the rest of the interior.
We remove them from the coating and then even out the colour across the whole panel — a spot touch-up will always show against the light.
On a car that will keep going off-road, a protector makes more sense than anywhere else: it reduces water absorption and makes ordinary cleaning easier.
Each of these services has its own page — with a description, the course of work and photos.

More about this serviceA lighter option for leather that isn't damaged, just tired: cleaning, conditioning and protection without re-colouring.
More about this serviceMud, sand and wet clothes are the worst combination for leather. Sand acts like sandpaper in the seams and folds, and moisture from clothes soaks into the leather and leaves tide marks. After a few seasons the finish on the seats is worn through, and a light interior has a tint that no home cleaning removes.
A deep clean, including the seams and stitching where the sand sits. Then filling the wear, refreshing the colour and protecting. For cars used off-road we suggest a finish harder than the factory one.
A seat cover holds moisture against the leather, and sand gets under it anyway. Well-protected leather and a clean after the season usually work better.
The workshop is in Gdańsk, ul. Litewska 12 — Chojnice is about 102 km away in a straight line.
Send a photo of the whole thing and a close-up of the damage, or just give us a call. From that we tell you whether it can be saved.
We give you the scope of work and the price. If restoration isn't worth it, we'll say so plainly — it happens, and it's better to hear it before than after.
Cleaning, damage repair, re-colouring, protection. On larger jobs we send you progress photos.
We tell you what to care for the leather with and what damages it fastest. That usually decides whether the result lasts for years.
The quickest way is this: a photo of the whole item, a close-up of the damage and a note on what the item or part is. On that basis we'll tell you whether it can be saved and what it will cost.
