Hello Rennlist, Murse here with a question about leather repair. My 911 is my daily so a bit of patina on a nearly 16-year-old car is part of the deal but some of the wear & tear is starting to bother me.
My car is a launch edition Carrera 4 and was optioned with full leather interior, nearly all of which presents exceedingly well. The door handles and forward-most part of the arm rest look like this:
Surface finish is worn on handle, forward-most portion of arm rest, several small divots from the first owner’s ring setting digging into the door panel
Are these areas repairable or will I be better off sourcing replacement leather bits? Am I overthinking this since I have no intention of ever selling the car?
Can be purchased directly from the manufacturer - in colors to match Porsche interiors. (You'll need to research the availability of the color match for your car - not sure if it's black or dark gray...)
Colorlock products are also available on Amazon or the Rag Company.

Another one happy with Colourlock. My interior is Graphite Grey and I had some wear on my drivers door storage lid.....blended perfectly and you would never know it was applied to that area.
I just looked up colourlock...site is down for the US but regardless...is it a dye? I saw something on Amazon where you can choose your color but I also saw other items from CL that don't seem to be color specific....
Thanks. I figured out the issue...there wasn't a color choice on the amazon listing I was on because it says F034 lower down in the description - which is black. Thanks again for the help, might order this...but i did just dye my bolsters...again...so probably will have to wait until it rubs off...again...
I've been using Color-Plus from the 1980s. Their leather conditioner called Soffener, is amazing. The first time I used them was to recolor a blue leather, water damaged "A" pillar in a 1986, 928.
Can you confirm for me/us that F012 equates to Porsche Sand Beige. Would like to double check before buying.
I don’t see anything on the packaging or the bottle that says F012. I went on Colourlock European website and ordered specifically “Porsche Sand Beige”
I suggest contacting Colourlock directly to check it is correct in case you are ordering from another source. Like I said mine was a spot on match, cannot tell anything was done and looks brand new.
