I got this to re-color my brown chair to gray. The process was pretty quick and easy and I’m thrilled with the result.The instructions were a little lacking on what to use and how, but basically just spread the dye over the furniture with whatever feels appropriate and let it dry fully before applying more. Definitely wear gloves. The gloves included felt thin and flimsy but they worked great and kept my hands quite clean from the dye.I did this project completely in my office with no windows open and there was no smell I could detect.I did one coat on this recliner and that used up most of the dye, leaving enough for touchups, so if you’re doing a larger piece of furniture, multiple jars will likely be needed. I’d planned on doing a couple coats, but was pleased with how well this gray covered the brown that I was pleased with this result. It goes on kind of like paint so I was able to easily cover the brown with the gray.Speed-wise it was a really quick process. I started with the back of the chair and turned on a 90-minute movie to watch while I painted my chair. I was able to sit in the chair to watch the ending of the movie, so I’d say it took me maybe 45 minutes to paint this recliner fully and it dries quickly, maybe 15-20 minutes, especially with the ceiling fan helping (note: heat is not recommended). So if you want to easily transform an item, it’s possible to do so quickly with this product.Some sections stuck to each other after painting it, like the backrest to the arms, but were easily separated without issue.It did feel a bit stiff and maybe crunchy at first, but after buffing it with a soft cloth and sitting in it, the leather has softened up. After sitting on the chair the past week, it doesn’t feel like paint on a chair. It feels natural, soft and comfortable.There was a decent amount of cat damage to the chair and this helped conceal that well. I think if I’d added mink oil as recommended, that would’ve helped but just the dye alone has helped significantly. It doesn’t seem like it will scratch off easily either.Overall, I’m extremely pleased with this product. It’s easy to apply, it dries quickly and the result is exactly what I wanted. I don’t always have a lot of patience for projects, but this did not require much. I’d definitely get it again.

I bought this to restore some reddish areas that were appearing on our great room sofas. It was so shockingly good, I decided to try it on the trashed old leather sofa that lives in my husband’s office (comfortable but ugly!) and you can see in the photo that it completely restored the color! This one is a nice dark espresso brown (I bought a different brand first, but it was notably lighter (but still called “dark brown”)). If you have scratches or worn areas on an espresso colored leather couch, this stuff is a miracle! Could not be happier with it! Old couch looks almost new! And it is super fast drying! I bought two because I read reviews that it doesn’t cover much, but I fixed focal areas on 2 couches, plus redid the seats on a large sofa and love seat, and didn’t use half, so I feel like it goes really far, actually! Wayyyy cheaper than new sofas and only takes minutes to apply!

Have not used the product yet -I’m interested to see color match and durability. Don’t want product coming off on clothes when sitting in vehicle

I love this balm! I originally bought it for my UTV seats but figured I’d try it on some old shoes. The Nike tennis shoes are ancient. I literally super glued the soles back together bc they came loose (they were still usable those). But this brought some life back to them! I can probably get a couple more years out of them for working around the house.Same for the boots, except it did change the color a bit. **Granted, these are cheap, fake, porous leather that I paid $10 for on clearance. It didn’t change the color of another pair of boots I used it on so take that into account.** I don’t mind because I rarely wore them anyhow since they were getting pretty rough looking. The style was originally the “worn in look” but they were getting to be a bit much. I’ll definitely be putting these back in rotation now. If altering the color is out of the question for you, I’d skip this product. But since it extends the life of a regularly used item, for me, it’s worth it. That is, if it holds up well. Seems to so far.Will definitely buy again. Can’t wait to try it with the leather dye on my seats.

Worked well to touch up our navy leather chair. Easy application.

Unser schwarzes Sofa hatte diverse abgenutzte Stellen. Habe das Mittel grosszügig nach Anleitung verteilt und trocken gerieben. Dann mit einer Lederpolitor nachbehandelt, so dass keine Farbrückstände bleiben (wegen der Kleidung!). Resultat lässt sich sehen. Alles wieder schön ebenmässig schwarz. Zu Beginn fühlt sich das Leder etwas steif an, nach mehrmaligem Gebrauch wieder schön weich. Produkt sehr zu empfehlen.

Used on leather suite where a patch had worn with head wearing the leather did the job good stuff 👍

I recently tried the Leather Recoloring Balm and Repair Kit, and I am thoroughly impressed. The balm was incredibly easy to use, thanks to the included starter tool kit with sponges and a brush pen. I used it to restore my old leather couch and was amazed by the results—it effectively covered cracks, scuffs, and scratches, leaving the leather looking new and vibrant.The drying time was quick, taking only about 15 minutes to air dry. The color has held up well over time and hasn't faded or become sticky. The large 8oz package is well-designed and ensures the product arrives safely. I love that it works on a wide range of leather items, from furniture to shoes. Highly recommended for anyone looking to breathe new life into their leather goods!

It is just a paint, as paint it is good.But it not a repair kit
