Interior scratch fix (dye?) for armrests

[T_E]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a dye or stain to repair fingernail scratches on my 2012 Equus black armrests? I inquired at the local Hyundai dealer and they had no idea of what to use. Thanks in advance!

Go to any used car dealership. They will have someone that does interiors repair, and that should be able to help you out. DIY interior repair would be a marker, but a good tech should be able to repair and dye the damage.

Thanks...will keep looking for a independent detailer or auto dealership that does this. Several I've been at that farmed their work out said the detailers they used had moved or retired.

If you are near MD or a surrounding state, I have contacts (I did auto restoration for almost a decade). If not, good luck!!

I have used leather dye I purchased from Seat Doctors, website at following link:

Select car make, then model, interior color and size needed, the 4oz for $24.75 is plenty for covering up a lot of marks. I have had mine for over 2 years and it is still three quarters full. If you have any questions about the color or application you can email the company owner who is very helpful. Hope this helps.
