Turbo Saddle
Used Turbo saddle for daily rider. Saddle has scratches, scrapes and small tear that had been glued. Good condition overall and seat cushion is soft.

Does anyone know if you can fix these light spots with black shoe dye? Could be a good way to restore this a bit, but maybe that would stain your butt. .

I tried shoe dye on some scuffed saddles - didn't really cover, although you'd think it would. Perhaps it was my technique - seemed to wipe off easily.

Try furniture touch up markers used on leather and vinyl. Mohawk makes the best but there are some others found at Home Depot. Worth a shot.

I would use a leather dye, not shoe polish or a little black spray paint applied with an almost dry q-tip..works for me!

Ah, what the hell, I need a black turbo even if this is a little more worn than I’d want. PM sent.
