Can I use Rub ‘n Restore® on vinyl and leather furniture?
Stains, fading, crazing and minor scuffs on vinyl and leather furniture are all easily corrected with Rub ’n Restore® water-based finishes.
The rule of thumb is if you can feel the damage, it would benefit from repair. Otherwise a new finish, and maybe a gentle sanding with 320 or 500 grit sandpaper, will suffice. We have hundreds of customers who can prove it; see their real photos and reviews!

I have a beautiful Château Dax dark brown leather sofa. The color no longer works with my design so I want to paint it light cream. I have a very, very few scuff marks from moving it in a tight space and if I could repair those fine but if not it still is beautiful. So what is needed to prep, repair, if possible, paint and seal

I have a Natuzzi in what I would say is in a dark Mocha or very Dark Brown. It was manufactured and made in Italy. I am not sure of the type of leather that was used and was wondering if you would have an idea. I would like to use the Cognac along with possible another type of brown to get a more rich vibrant color possibly even the Rust or Tobacco color. The arm rest is worn, but not to the point where is it destroyed just the top sheen layer that was used and so are the seating areas which if cleaned feels gunky. Is the color I am looking to achieve feasible and if so what colors do you recommend and what is needed for my project if it is possible. I tried to upload some photos but could not upload in the comments section. TY for your help.
