AngelusAngelus Leather Filler for Filling or Repairing Holes, Tears, Cracks, Scratches, for Leather Car Seats, Furniture, Shoes - Flexible | Made in USA - 2 fl oz

I recently used the Angelus Leather Filler to repair some cracks and scuffs on a pair of leather shoes, and I was impressed with its effectiveness. Here’s my detailed review:Ease of Use — This filler is very easy to apply—it has a smooth, creamy consistency that spreads well over damaged areas. I used a small spatula and my fingers to fill in cracks, and it dried evenly without excessive shrinkage. Sanding after drying helps achieve a seamless look, especially for deeper repairs.Flexibility & Durability — Once fully cured, the filler remains flexible, which is crucial for leather items that bend and move, like shoes or car seats. Some fillers tend to harden too much and crack over time, but Angelus holds up well with daily wear.Color & Paintability — The filler dries to a neutral off-white color, making it ideal for customization. It absorbs leather paint well, and after applying Angelus Leather Paint over it, the repair blended seamlessly.Best Uses — This product is great for repairing cracks, scratches, and small holes on leather shoes, car seats, furniture, and jackets. However, for larger holes or deep gouges, multiple layers or additional reinforcement may be needed.Pros & Cons✅ Pros:• Easy to apply and dries evenly• Remains flexible after curing• Paint adheres well for a seamless repair• Made in the USA with high-quality materials❌ Cons:• Not suitable for large holes without reinforcement• Requires sanding for best results• Only comes in a small 2 fl oz sizeFinal Verdict — The Angelus Leather Filler is a high-quality, flexible repair solution for leather items. It’s easy to work with, durable, and blends well when painted, making it perfect for minor cracks and surface damage. If you need a long-lasting fix for worn-out leather, this is a great product to have.

Works really well if you use sparingly. I was able to mend a clean rip on my gray leather sofa without having to even repaint by using a thin layer of this filler on the undersides of the rip and then gently pushing the sides back together. It works pretty quickly, so the bigger the rip, maybe break up the process. The rip on my sofa was about an inch, so it was pretty small. I used a toothpick to apply the filler and made sure the layer would be thin enough not to bleed out. If it does, maybe use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe the excess? I'm not sure, but it was clean enough that I cannot see any white filler, so I didn't have to sand or paint anything. No smell, looks great, pretty easy, and took only a few minutes to apply.

My apartment came furnished with a leather couch. We put fabric protectors on it, but my cat got to it somehow and it had some punctures. This filler, paired with Angelus leather paint, deglazer, and finisher (not to mention some basic arts and crafts skills) fixed the couch perfectly-- you'd never know my cat was anywhere near it. It's flexible and smooth to the surrounding surface when applied and sanded properly. Thank you Angelus!!

I have a cream colored loveseat that was in rough shape from wear & cat scratches. Cleaned the sofa with a cleaner called Super Clean (saw it on a YouTube video). It cuts grease and oils really well with almost no odor. After it dried I used the filler and did about 3 coats. Allowed the filler to dry a few hours between coats. It did a great job of filling in minor scratches in one coat, but needed a few coats for the black areas. Waited 24 hours after last coat, sanded it briefly with 220 grit sandpaper, & then applied leather paint. Came out great and my sofa looks brand new. Note - I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it starts to thicken pretty fast if you don't keep the top closed as you work. And I had to buy a 2nd container of filler to have enough to complete my loveseat. But granted my loveseat was was in bad shape. But 2 oz is still a pretty small container. I would definitely recommend this product! I noticed some reviews said it was too thin. But you want it thin. If it's too thick then it shows up under the Leather paint and you spend all your time sanding. Better to use several thin coats than one thick one.

I wanted to repaint/restore my aged yellowish leather chair, but even after 5th layer one of the arms still didn’t hold the paint. Some spots were really hard to cover and made the color uneven. I had to order another brand to cover it up. Fortunately the other brand worked. I like the balm comes with the paint though. It moistures the leather and somewhat sealed the paint. Check the photos and see what I was talking about.

This item works very well for me. It fills cracks and bad areas on shoes. It leaves a great appearance afterwards.

There wasn't a lot of information on how much you need so I'll share what I did. I have some waverunners seats that are sunbaked and cracking, I was torn between reupholstering or repairing, I discovered there's alot of products that help you repair, I bought some vinyl spray that seemed to work pretty well but I thought it might hide the the cracking, it didn’t, I used this stuff, it worked pretty well. Using my finger, I did a thin layer on the main problem areas, I'm guessing in total area about 12 square inches, I used almost half of the container, you need use sandpaper, I used one those square sandpaper sponge thingy, it's flexible and I lightly took off any finger smearing marks, I'll probably just use all of it rather than waste it, I'll update if needed for durability
