Ok, here's the story... When I got my beast about 2 months ago, I had always thought it was all black sport seats, but as it turned out, the previous owner didn't like the original black/silverstone leather so he had someone sprayed a top black coat on the silverstone...
About a week after getting the car, I started to notice what seems to be leather cracks but in fact it's the top black paint that's cracking. I managed to scrub off all the paint on the door panels, but the black paint the seats are stuck on pretty good... I can scrub them off inch by inch by it will take forever and might not be a perfect clean. Should I try lacquer thinner? Will lacquer thinner hurt the original silverstone dye or the leather itself?
The guy who sprayed painted the interior did a very bad job, a lot of paint got on the plastic next to the leather on the door panel too... I'll be lucky if I can fix this mess
On the brighter side, at least the leather underneath are kept in perfect condition I guess
