Excellent product, did everything I was hoping it would.
Bought this product to combat some scuffs on the side bolster of a leather car seat. The scuffs were enough to have gone through the surface colour of the black leather and look white so I was a little concerned initially about how much I would need, especially if I needed multiple applications. I needn't have as I have only used a fraction of the bottle to do 4 applications on the whole side bolster.The dye itself is very thin so you have to be careful not to spill or apply too much in each coat, but a little patience is rewarded with excellent results. To someone who doesn't know where the scuffs were the 'repair' would be almost impossible to spot. One thing I did make sure to do was to clean beforehand with some leather cleaner to remove any grease/dirt, but then because this can dry the leather I moisturised the leather after treatment.I think having black seats makes it an awful lot easier to match the colour, but nevertheless the results are excellent and the product is very competitively priced when compared to others on the market.Highly recommended!

Does what it says on the bottle!
My leather suite is seventeen years old now and came with a twenty five year warranty, it is well built and good quality and not really had that much attention paid to its well being!Most of the leather is as good as new but the seat pads were scuffing and crazing a bit and after doing a bit of research on YouTube discovered this stuff ... it looks like an easy fix and it really is!I wasn't expecting much but I was genuinely amazed by the results with very little effort involved ...I cleaned and degreased the surface with kitchen roll and a small amount of isopropyl acetate (non acetone based nail varnish remover) and dried it for a few seconds with a hairdryer.Applied the dye onto the sponge then wiped over the whole surface of the seat cushion and the crazes and scuffs blended in and disappeared. I gave it a second coat after a couple of minutes for good measure.I gave it a quick dry with the hairdryer again ... all four cushions done in twenty minutes.Colour match is close enough and the finished product dried only a little duller than the rest of the suite but a small amount of Carrs Leather Oil brought it back to life and now it looks as good as new ... wish I'd taken a picture before but like I said I wasn't expecting it to turn out so well.Plenty left in the bottle for future applications.Might get some for my car steering wheel next ...

Like new boots.
I bought this to cover some holes I had filled in with leather filler. They were right at the front on the toes of my boots. Its very good and works just like it says . I had ordered a shade too light for my boots by mistake , so instead of paying out for another bottle I mixed a few drops of acrylic paint in with it to get the right shade. It seems to have worked . But I can't say it won't make a difference to how the stuff works. I thought it was worth a go. I am very pleased with the results. It drys very quick and you speed it up even more with a hair drier. If you have any questions I can recommend their customer service .

Not impressed
Not impressed at all.Followed instructions & did not work.Spending more money on a product does not always mean better product.Rubbish.

More a conditioner than a dye
The chairs I have are brand new but had been left in a damp room so had a bit of mildew on the seat. I removed the mildew and cleaned the chair but I can still see the marks so I hoped the dye would cover it but it hasn’t made any difference.

Nice one!
Used this one to cover a few marks on BMW car seats. Two quick applications and a blast with a warm hairdryer and good as new. Sealed the leather with a decent leather restorer for a just out of the factory look.Great product, a little bit goes a long way.

I started applying small amount and then leaving to dry then a polish and repeated until it didn't look as bad as it was
I used this to try and repair a stain on a leather item where something rubber had been placed against it for a period of time and so took the stain out of the leather.I started applying small amount and then leaving to dry then a polish and repeated until it didn't look as bad as it was.I was probably hoping to restore it completely but I think it was worth the purchase.

Works!
I wasn't too sure when I first started using this as it seemed to go everywhere but once I got the hang of it, it was easy to apply. I used it to cover leather scuff marks on the car seat and it covers them perfectly, really quite impressive. I found the best way was to apply to area and dab in to leather then wipe of excess which left a smooth finish.
