I was wondering if anyone has dealt with covering up cig. burns on the upholstery on the ceiling of the car. The fabric seems thin but the blemishes look like it is possible to repair. Anyone have any ideas?

try interior detailing by a professional shop?

where's hermosa beach? OC or LA county? If you're near Costa Mesa you can try California Collision Center.

I just spent $400 at lexus to detail my car and they didn't even touch the fabric........

I'm pretty sure they cant do much....the fabric is burned and would have to be replaced...

Its not really burnt but there is less material there now. I was thinking there must be some way to smooth it out.

If you think the cigarette burns look bad in the car, imagine what your lungs look like.
