   Only took an hour to totally transform my 25 year old leather sectional. Before it was all marked up and drab, after using this it looks great and my wife has stopped asking for a new sofa!! Well worth the time and moneyl

   We are in the business of restoration of structures in historical districts and preservation of furniture and artifacts. Current projects include structures in Ft Worth Texas and Taos New Mexico. Your products have proven to be versatile performers and superior products, and we saved a few hundred dollars for reupholstering with new leather on these two chairs. The end result was better than new leather, inasmuch as the surface condition was renewed while retaining much of the well earned, period appropriate character of the old leather.

   THANK YOU for selling me the small bottle of Black Dye.   You may recall, I'm changing the piping color on my motorcycle seat from Red to Black since my Motorcycle is Blue.   I attached a photo of my initial test....The match is exceptional!   You ladies ROCK!

   Attached are before and after photos of my leather couch that is 32 years old. Its a great couch and very comfortable but the 1980's teal color had to go. Your product worked perfectly. I received it  on Monday  and after 4 coats, I got the results I wanted. I rarely take the time to give this kind of feedback, but I was so happy with the results I had to write. I really liked having the flexibility of being able to adjust the sheen using the gloss sealer. I will spread the word!

   There are a couple products out there that appeared to do the same thing as Run 'N Restore so I did my homework. I went with this product as the reviews were AMAZING. Just about every one ranted and raved about how easy and how good the product worked, so I decided I'd give it a go. I ordered the peppercorn as the color chart and pics made it look like it was one step from black. That was not the case. It is definitely a lighter blue gray color. After I did two coats and decided the color wouldn't match the living room (nothing wrong with the actual color, it looked good) I decided to go with black.

After I did two coats and decided the color wouldn't match the living room (nothing wrong with the actual color, it looked good) I decided to go with black. BUMMER as I had to order and pay for another bottle knowing the first would go to waste but that's life. I wish I could have returned the unused portion for a partial credit. Anyway, I got the black and after 5 coats it turned out GREAT. Exactly what I was looking for. Not a jet black but more like a dark charcoal. NICE color. I am more than satisfied. Followed the instructions and just used an ordinary sponge and that was all it took. I would HIGHLY recommend this product. I was ready to buy a new couch and love seat and don't need to do that now. I purchased the larger bottle and still have a quarter bottle left after doing 5 coats on a full size couch and love seat to include the back side. The product is really amazing. Hard to believe these are the same couch and love seat. Buy it. You won't be disappointed.

   I had high hopes for this product. I was going to dye several chiropractic tables. I tested the product by dyeing 2 vinyl bolsters. It went on easy and covered well. After 2 days of drying time I tested the adhesion by rubbing it with a wet paper towel and also Clorox wipes. With a little rubbing both removed the dye. I certainly cant use it on tables that people will be lying on. Disappointed for sure.

   Here are before and after photos of our very kid, pet, and sun loved living room set! Your product was easy to use and very budget friendly. You saved us thousands from not having to buy a new set. So glad I tried this!

   I began to wonder if I had done the right thing by applying this dye to the car's vinyl running boards. The first coat didn't go on that smooth and looked pretty streaked. HOWEVER, after the 4th coat of dye and two applications of Clear Prep+Finish it lOOks like NEW again!

   I was looking for a leather stain and was pleasantly surprised to find rub and restore. When the product arrived and it arrived very quickly I followed the instructions but wasn't pleased with how the application work so I did it my own way I actually used a brush and the seat came out so great this was for my car the side panels came out so great and the bottle last at me throughout the whole project I still have some left very satisfied.

   I have refurbished two leather jackets and a pair of boots with Rub n Restore and it has worked brilliantly. I can't recommend this product highly enough. Extremely simple and fast to use with a brilliant finish.
   
   Last year my wife used it to refresh our couch and arm chairs and it did a fantastic job of that too.

   These vintage patio chairs were pretty weathered and ugly. Now they look fresh and are good for several more years in the sun!

   I bought a $400 ottoman with four stools inside of it, and somehow in the store it looked like it matched, but once delivered, it did not. I was devastated. It was very dark brown, and I wanted grey or black. Your product changed it to black, and I couldn't be more thrilled. It was hard to believe how easy it was to do. I used four coats and still have a ton. The round stool is the original brown color. Thank you so much... now it's perfect.

   Once I'm finished, my couches will look new, and I bought them used on Craigslist! When I first started, seeing how thinly it went on, I was really worried I'd run out!! I still have at least 1/3 of a 16 oz bottle left, haven't used any of the second 16 oz bottle yet. I think it may just be enough with the one 16 oz bottle. I'll have tons left, which is good, I can keep redoing it as needed thru the years. Thanks!

   I HAVEN'T LEFT A REVIEW FOR ANY PRODUCT IN 30 YEARS. THAT'S. BECAUSE I WAS ALMOST ALWAYS DISSATISFIED. I DIDN'T WANT TO WASTE MY TIME WRITING A REVIEW. BUT....IN THIS CASE I DECIDED TO GO AHEAD AND WRITE A REVIEW THAT DESERVES TO BE KNOWN FOR THEIR OUTSTANDING PRODUCT BUT ALSO THE OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE. THE RESULTS OF THE DYE I PURCHASED WERE UNBELIEVABLY OUTSTANDING. I CONSIDER MYSELF "OUTSTANDING" AS WELL FOR PURCHASING THIS OUTSTANDING PRODUCT. YES I KNOW....I USED THE WORD "outstanding" TOO MUCH. CAN'T HELP IT...

   Hi, it's been a year since my first purchase and I bought more product to update my sofas. I have two big dogs and I let them rough house all they want in the sofas. This gives them an interesting distressed look and people often think it's intentional. I don't mind it so much, but my husband isn't so fond of the look, so I decided it was time to renew them. These were originally waxed aniline, oxblood red. I had trouble with the wax and you ladies helped me figure out how to get the wax off with denatured alcohol so the dye wouldn't flake off. Well that helped quite a bit, but the dogs still managed to wear off a lot of the dye. Now that I u...More

But the husband is happy. :-)

   I bought a 2018 iM Toyota Corolla. The designers thought the black dashboard would look snazzy with a white lightening bolt. I did not. The upholsterer wanted $430 to take the dash apart and wrap the offending white bolt with black vinyl and put it back together. I said, "No, thanks" and found Rub 'n' Restore. I couldn't be happier with the result. I took it back to the dealership to show them how the iM could look with a little touch up. Next week, I'm going to show the upholsterer, too!

   I ordered this confidently based on other reviews and testimonials but was beyond impressed with the results on my destroyed loveseat! Even with only one coat and my half assed patching job ( I have ZERO patience) it looks 100% better! I would recommend!!

   I redid a turquoise leather couch with the black dye. VERY happy with the results. Couch looks fantastic. It took 3 coats to cover, still lots of product left. Fantastic!
