Matching Leather, leather-ette, and cloth is available
to complete your interior.
1.
Leather-ette and Cloth is 54 inches wide
and sold by the running yard, meaning they are connected. 1 yard is 54”
X 36”, 2 yards is 54” X 72”, 3 yards is 54” X 108”, etc. Each yard
contains 13 and ˝ square feet. The price of vinyl or cloth is $21 per
running yard, or about $1.50 per square foot ($28 per yard for German imported leather-ette). These are synthetic manufactured products so the quality is consistent
and free of flaws.
Because
leather-ette is less expensive I recommend using it on large parts like
dashboards and door panels.
Leather
is best used for “contact points”; places the occupants are in contact
with the interior; like the seats, armrests, console lids, etc.
2. Leather is sold by the
square foot. Leather is not a nice rectangle; it is shaped like a cow.
Being a natural product leather hides contain flaws like brand marks, bee
stings, and bullet holes. You send MrMike paper patterns of what you need and
he will cut these pieces for you from a seat matching leather hide. Leather
is priced at $10
sq. ft. for cut pieces.
Measurements are converted from square inches to square feet, such as: a 9
X 17 inch cut piece is 153 square inches or 1.06 square feet or $10.60.
These cut pieces are free of flaws.
