I'm thinking about retrimming my interior seats and door cards and in looking for suppliers have noticed that there seems to be not such a difference in price between leather and leathercloth. Certainly there is a much bigger price discrepancy in the cost of a retrimmed leather and vinyl seat. Am I missing something here? I've found leather at between £10 and £15 per square metre (links below) while leathercloth costs £8 to £10.
I would do the work myself so would only be buying the raw materials, unpicking the old seats and using the old bits as templates.
So is leather much harder to work than leathercloth or vinyl, any caveats in working leather vs vinyl. Also, can anyone recommend the companies below or others who have provided good service?
