How to Repair Leather Cracking on the Teana Dashboard?

[JaxsonAnn]

First, mainly check the depth, lightly clean the surface of the scratch, and consider the dry and wet conditions. Use a fine brush dipped in varnish to fill the scratch, and dry it unconditionally if necessary. Carefully flatten it with a cutting paper knife, then level it with 800-grit sandpaper, wash and dry it, and finally spray paint.

Last time my Teana also had the issue of the dashboard leather cracking. First, I used leather cleaner to wipe off the grease around the cracks, then carefully filled the cracks with special leather repair paste using a small scraper. When it was semi-dry, I used a heat gun on low setting to slowly heat and set it, and finally matched the color with a color chart and sprayed it. It took me two weekends, but I saved 2000 yuan in repair costs. The key is to apply the leather repair paste in thin layers multiple times, with 4-hour intervals for drying each time, so the repaired surface is less likely to crack again. If the crack is over 3 centimeters, it's better not to bother with DIY and just replace the panel directly.
