Full or partial car renovation
Your car is made up of various parts that inevitably wear out: the steering wheel, car seats, gear knob, plastics, rims, bodywork and so on.
Regular friction and the occasional knock leave their mark, and you miss the comfort and look your car had when it was new. Yet it is possible to renovate a large part of your vehicle yourself, at home!

How do I renovate my leather or skai seats?
Are your seats faded? Or even worse, are they torn, split or cracked? Do you want to change the colour of your car interior to personalise it or change its finish?

How do I repair a torn leather car seat?
Whether torn, holed or ripped, leather can easily be repaired with our products. Depending on your situation, we will point you towards different products:
- The Sofolk Leather Healing Glue: a healing glue that lets you make tears disappear if the edges of the open leather are clean enough. This stops the leather from deteriorating further and spares you a complete recolouring of your car seat.
- The Sofolk Leather Repair Paste: a liquid leather that lets you repair even the largest tears in your car seats. Using a spatula, you apply the paste to simply fill the missing leather. This product, which shrinks as it dries, has to be sanded and applied several times for a smooth finish before recolouring.
- The Sofolk Car Leather Seat Tear Repair Kit: a kit made up of fine sandpaper, Sofolk Repair Paste and a piece of leather for a solid repair of your car seat.
How do I repaint a damaged leather steering wheel?
A leather steering wheel is an undeniable aesthetic detail and, above all, gives you real comfort when driving. However, its very frequent use, and the friction that goes with it, show signs of wear that you want to restore: faded steering wheel, scratched or holed leather, and so on. Your leather steering wheel needs regular care and suitable products. It is on this basis that Sofolk created the Leather Steering Wheel Renovation Kit, made up of a Silky Lacquer for leather, fine sandpaper, a Repair Paste for leather and a Pigment Leather Colourant. The colourant is available in any colour, and on the Sofolk website you will find the colour charts of the various car manufacturers so that you can find the colour that matches your car model exactly, for an optimal restoration. A renovation that can just as well be an opportunity for a change of style if you opt for a colour different from the original. A chance to change your car at little cost and to enjoy the pleasure of renovated leather on your steering wheel again.
How do I care for and protect my leather or fabric car interior?
Protecting and caring for your leather seats and bench seats is decisive for their lifespan. To keep leather bright and supple, a quarterly treatment is important. To that end, Sofolk offers various products suited to your needs: a nourishing oil, a silky lacquer or a protective wax.
For cleaning and caring for your fabric seats and bench seats, you will find on the Sofolk website a powerful Cleaner / Stain Remover, as well as a Waterproofing Spray that gives you long-lasting protection.
