Coconix Leather and Vinyl Repair Kit

Rubbing Alcohol

Cotton Swab or Cotton Pad

Plastic Wrap (for adding texture)

Step 1

Preparing the Area

Prepare the worn out area on your leather car steering wheel cover by carefully trimming any excess threads, jagged bits, or wear and tear.

Step 2

Cleaning the Area

Clean the area around the worn out part on your leather car steering wheel cover with rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab.
Make sure to test it on a hidden area first. If alcohol is harsh for your material, you may use warm, soapy water or your usual leather or vinyl cleaner.

Step 3

Mixing the Repair Compound

If your repair requires a custom color, refer to the Color Mixing Guide in the kit to match the color and prepare the mixture using the empty mixing jar provided.

Step 4

Applying the Repair Compound

Apply the repair compound to the worn out part on your leather car steering wheel cover.
Start by applying it under and along the edges and work from the outside toward the center.
Use the spatula for larger applications and the brush for surface applications and detailed touch-ups.

Step 5

Drying and Additional Layers

Allow several hours for the repair compound to dry until it is no longer sticky to the touch on your leather car steering wheel cover.
Once dry, apply additional layers until the repaired area is level with the rest of the area.

Step 6

Adding Texture

Once the repair compound is semi-dry, tear off a slightly larger piece of plastic wrap.
Press it against the semi-dry final layer of the repair compound on your leather car steering wheel cover.
When you lift your hand off, the area will be slightly textured.
Repeat this process until you've achieved the desired texture. Adding texture will help the repaired section to blend with the rest of the steering wheel cover.

Step 7

Finishing Touches

After the repair compound has dried, use a cotton pad or cotton swab and rubbing alcohol to buff out the edges of the repair on your leather car steering wheel cover.

Step 8

Maintenance

Clean the steering wheel cover regularly with a damp cloth or leather cleaner to remove dust and dirt.
Apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and to maintain its natural shine.
Avoid exposing the steering wheel cover to direct sunlight or extreme heat for long periods of time.
Prevent future wear and tear by using a steering wheel cover or cover with a thicker leather material.
Regularly check for any signs of wear and tear and address them immediately to avoid further damage.
