Any recommendations for leather refinisher?

[Smash]

My seats are starting to crack.  Are there any preferred leather refinishers that you guys use or will almost any will do?

Are you sure it's leather?

DO NOT USE ARMOUR ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea I've heard about armor all.  The seat's probably not leather, I don't know what material it is actually.  But there has to be a way to keep the seat from cracking.

It's vinyl. If it's already starting to crack, you are better off looking into a local upholsterer to re-cover it. Doesn't cost the earth, but gets progressively more expensive if you let water get into the foam, as then it degrades and eventually rots.

Some of the German board lads have had good results with this bit of kit:

Even with post it's <£34.

All you need is a decent staple gun. Stainless staples would finish the job nicely but they're a bit expensive, tbh you'll probably find a local upholsterer who'll apply the cover for you cheaply enough (ie, £20 under the table) which would be handy if you have no staple gun.
