Cheers dude, I'm pleased it's staying also. I'm not sure to be honest, keep it clean and maintained, maybe a bit lower, and do something about the faded steering wheel.

We'll see....

Cheers mate, I remember reading that before. Will give it ago with my megs leather cleaner soon.

[Verity]

I attually re-did that the other day. Used chemical guys fabric cleaner mixed in an egg cup with water and applied to the thread with a small brush. Then treated the leather with a cleaner and bees wax.
Has come out so much better then before the leather feels great and when dried the thread came out bright red! Really chuffed

[Godderz23]

Awesome, looking forward to giving mine a go soon.
