@tubeofyoupaste Yes, the dash had a typical GM dash texture. I use a spray texture to add grain to my repair area. I only blend a the surrounding area and mix all colors by eye. After 20+ years of color matching I haven't come across a color I can't match within 95% accuracy.

  @mypalrocco Have I done work for you or are you making a generalization? I wouldn't call saving people hundreds of dollars by doing a repair they asked me to do 'ripping them off'. If you feel I've specifically cheated you in some way please be more specific and I'd like to see what I can do.

  @jaggass I would repair it in a similar fashion. Depending on the type of plastic, a heat process may be used to minimize the scratch first, then it would be refinished similar to what is shown in the video.

  @darked777 I guess it's just a matter of opinion. But after 18 years of doing these and similar repairs I've always felt I was helping my customers by saving them money, not by cheating them. I posted this video to show how the repairs are done and demonstrate they are made to last. I see chargin...

  @darked777 If you're referring to the repair as cheating a customer, I only do repairs that are requested to be done. No one would have this repair done and not be aware of it.

We repair leather too.

The process of repairing a tear in a leather seat. It was in the rear seat of a Lexus GS300.

@jaggass Usually the cost of repair is much lower than replacement. The repair in the video costs under $100. To replace the panel in leather would likely be more than twice that cost.

  @donoddvar This video was created as a marketing tool, not as an educational video. We never intended to be a training center. There are very good videos out there that give more details on the products and techniques available.
