Also see the difference between vinyl or leather.

@klwthe3rd

Honestlly when i have my upholstery recovered i choose to have it done in vinyl. Today it looks as good as Leather and you know what, Vinyl doesn't crack and is much more rugged than leather. Leather doesn't hold up worth a crap. All the cars i owed with leather seats always cracked even with all the conditioning and care i gave those seats. Vinyl for the win.

You would make so much money by providing seat cover replacements for our older cars. Times are tough and many are keeping our older cars that need TLCs. I would trust your products over ebay. Thank you for the video~!!

Some vinyls nowadays are extremely similar to leather

@rmb6604 Год назад

Leather is going to age, if not treated regularly it will happen in a relatively short time...I had a 1974 Gran Torino with original vinyl seats...still like new in 2022. So now I am looking at my truck leather seats and thinking I might go to vinyl, especially the higher grades....so I won't have to redo them in the future. Since a new truck is around 80k these days...I will keep my old truck and fix it as needed. I had new leather replacement covers in a 71 vette, after 3 yrs here comes the unsightly wrinkles and creases, no matter how much I conditioned it, and that certainly was not my daily driver.

My guess is the Sides are vinyl, before i keep watching….

@edgarherrera5085

Only the seating areas of the seats are leather. I know this, my 78 Cadillac Coupe has leather seats, and the sides, bottom bolsters, and backing are vinyl color matched to my cars leather. My interior color code is 783 Antique Mulberry. Great video

Listen to this guy people, I've been trying to tell people this exact stuff about leather & vinyls for the years that I have been doing it and he has been doing it a lot longer than I have & nothing has changed except for more time! 🤣🤣 Good stuff!

@rwl8150 Год назад

Yeah I bought a Dodge Challenger with leather interior and within 2 years the crappy vinyl side on the drivers seat started cracking exposing the cloth behind it. This when I found out they were not full leather. Would never upgrade to factory "leather" again.

@richardbyrne4659 Год назад

In upholstered furniture to keep cost down they advertise "touch leather", meaning any area that the body touches when setting normally is real leather, the rest is vinyl. Car interiors are no different, all about cost savings! Great video
