Interior Repair is so simple. SO friggin easy!...yet, some manage to mess it up still. I mean, go ask a painter how easy it is to color match a pearl white, or ask a PDR Technician how simple it is to remove a 24" crease through a bodyline. But interior repair tech? Damn, such easy work. Leather, vinyl, velour and carpet. All in a days work, and step by step, great results await you.
But, heres how you can avoid success, and sink your Interior Repair day in no time..

1) Rush your work. Yup, time is money, so dont take your time...haul ass and finish in seconds. Who cares how the repair looks anyways..

2) Dont color test your dyes prior to redying. Just spray and hope. I mean, why would you want to be sure the leather dye on that Mercedes is a spot on match, right? Heck, it might take you 2-3 mintues to do so..

3) Use cheap products. Yeah, everyone says good products keep your business coming back and save you time, but spray paint and household glue from Home Depot are SO cheap! Use crap products...

4) Dont grain your leather and vinyl repairs. Yeah, just fix the rip or tear or hole, and then fill and dye. Sure the area texture wont match and will be smooth and standout like a sore thumb, but time is money..so move on..

5) Dont remove a stain, always dye it. Sure, it might come right up with Acetone et al, but that would be too easy. Complicate it...use a spray dye, or better yet a spray paint from your Home Depot run..a surefire way to have more problems.

These are just 5 examples..God knows there are HUNDREDS more.



Happy Pushing!
