Hi All,

So after getting off work today I noticed a portion of my seat had melted. It looks like someone held a lighter up to it and scorched it. Needless to say I was pretty pissed but now I'm focused on getting it fixed. Any suggestions? I'm not sure if the seat (a '68 contemporary) is made out of plastic, leather, pleather?

Thanks for your help,
Ryan

Vandalism bites. Sorry to hear of your misfortune. Also sorry that I don't have any answers.

Best fix is just to recover TBH.
