Can I touch-up leather or vinyl without dyeing the whole piece?
Yes, with a close-matching color, you can touch up and correct discoloration, stains and conceal repairs on leather or vinyl upholstery.
Without a matching color, however, you will have blend surrounding areas or perhaps refinish the entire piece. This is more money, more labor, and can be more maintenance.

I need to color 4 barstool seats ( diameter of each seat is approximately 20” and the cushion height is approximately 3” [ the sides of the cushions are leather too]). I will be coloring the entire cushions and will be matching, as close as I can, the existing color. How many ounces of dye do I need to purchase?

Everything is great about this company! FAST delivery and easy to use!! I stained faded leather to blend with non faded spots and it looks great! I ordered a few swatches and was able to pick a color just like my couch. I’m so pleased!
