928 at last

Snip a sample from underneath the seat and ship it over to Joanne at Color-Plus.
She has a digital analyser - works well......

Marble Grey. My interior is the same color and color combination.

With the contrast of the Silver Grey, your interior does look like Linen.

Could be this ^... following is a picture of my 90GT with silk grey seats for what it's worth. In your original picture, yours look a little lighter, so my guess is they're linen. And per Vilhuer post silk grey was not available in 88, although you never know for sure with Porsche and special order (my seat leather was special order per the window sticker).

Okay

Ordered

Linen

Light silver grey

Dove grey

This way I'll figure it out one way or the other

I think it's linen

I on,y have a few small touch ups so we shall see

Thanks all

Clean well with acetone (or the like) first. Need to get the silicates (and others) out from all things we've put on the seats over time first, otherwise the touch up won't hold. I've even used a hair dryer to warm the leather up before applying. It helps.

Linen has a slight greenish tint or in other words its singing green.

And Silk Grey has some orange tint in it.

I responded to you on the other thread- I recently positively identified mine as "Light Gray" and yours certainly looks similar.

I realized I forgot to post the pics in my other response!!

PS: I am working with some dye I bought with the assumption that mine was Lt Gray and it looks like a very good match.

I have three colors coming and light grey is one of them

Tomorrow hopefully I will know

John S. Markowitz

Please do.

It's crazy how difficult it is to nail down the correct color when in actuality, there are not a ton of them in this area of the spectrum.

For the record, I ordered my dye from: http://www.dynamixdyes.com/ out of the UK.

I had read very good things about them on the BMW M5 Board.

As mentioned, the color looks like a very nice match and so far, so good, but I'd hesitate to recommend them just yet until I see how it holds up. I will say however, the service was poor in getting the product-the first shipment never arrived (it happens), there was never any tracking # issued to me, they apologized and dispatched a 2nd one that took a VERY long time to arrive and I was about to conclude I'd been ripped off to be honest.

It eventually arrived and in it was a handwritten note of apology and they gave me extra dye for my troubles which was very good of them- but then they forgot to include the applicator sponge! There could be some temp issues w personnel or something so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now.

You forgot Marble grey, 94-95.

jeff968

The thing about light grey (and marble grey) is that it is always combined with another color.

For light grey (92- E94) you would find it combined with:
Black
Cobalt Blue
Magenta
Classic grey

For marble grey (L94 - 95) you would find it combined with:
Black
Midnight Blue

For 968s that is....

Vilhuer

True but it's only for '94-95 so it shouldn't apply in this case.


And also for 928 unless interior has full leather option. Dash etc. were done in about half dozen different vinyl colors fo each model year while seats where done about double number of colors. In case someone desired to get something else than those half dozen colors full leather was expensive but available way to make it happen.
