    I purchased the flite cleaner, the clear and prep and the beige leather dye. My badly distressed beige sectional, dogs, kids, wear, etc. was ready for the trash, now it looks brand new! Took about and hour and 30 minutes to do all steps. WOW! brand new....love it and will tell everyone I know. Thank you!

    I mixed this with my rub n restore red chili and persimmon custom analysis mix. It resulted in a nice multi dimensional luster. I left the clear out when I needed more opacity and coverage and made sure the last layer had more clear to it for luster and protection. Easy, beautiful, reduced brittleness and increased durability. I did a whole sectional and used about 4 oz.

    Created a great shine after applying several coats of dye. 3 or more coats of sealer after dye application looked great

    First time user on a white leather sectional. The sectional was good quality, but 25 years old and showing some color wear. Took some elbow grease to clean with alcohol to get oil and years off. Easy to use prep. Three easy to apply coats (probably could have gotten by with 2 coats) and then the finish coat. Took 2 days for large curved sectional, because of drying and only working it during the day. Too early to tell, but if it holds up as advertised, it will be an a huge bargain. Only used 1 large bottle of prep/finisher and 1 large bottle of Peppercorn dye, and I still have some left for touch-up or repair. Very satisfied, and gett...More

    Very satisfied, and getting compliments on "professional" end product. Will use again on our Pontoon Boat.

    I tried to mix this with the paint to tone the shine down a bit but even when mixed 50/50 it was still shiny. Hopefully they will come out with a matte finish that doesn't require guess work

    I’m a little disappointed in the color match because the picture appeared to be a perfect match. I’m still working on it and will put a clear coating over it when I’m done. The product is very easy to use.

    I mixed the clear prep and finish conditioner 1:1 with dye for a satin finish. Worked great.

    I will never be without a bottle of this in my house. I used it to prep my couches for colour, seal the colour and to condition a different set and it is amazing. Brings life back to old leather!!

    I didn't buy R&R for my steering wheel, but it worked great. Most guides to refurbishing a steering wheel include removing the wheel (a lot more involved than it sounds), sanding the old finish off, smoothing it, priming it, masking it, spray painting it again and again, spraying several coats of clear varnish, and then reassembling it. Whew! I put a few coats of R&R dye on with a sponge (without removing or masking it), waited a couple of days and applied a couple coats of clear. What a difference it made and without all of the hassle! Thanks for a great product t that's easy to use. I can't wait to try it on my furniture now.

    After having great success with the Cognac and Peppercorn dyes I tried the clear prep. I really liked how it finished off the couches and added a subtle shine.

    Loved all you products. With wine color found I had to use the sealer or it would rub off color. Also on furniture with parts not leather after several coats of color had to use sealer to get a smooth not streaky look. My furniture looks beautiful!

    After allowing my two Rhodesian Ridgebacks took over my couch, love seat and recliner. their nails had scratched the leather up to the point I thought I would have to replace them. I looked hi and lo for a product that restored the shine/sheen they had when they were new. After a couple of coats of Clear Prep+Finish Leather Conditioner, it has the sheen, the color came back (dark chocolate) without dye. Best $ I ever spent!

    I like the product, but I do still stress when it's time to apply. I don't always get the finish I need. Sometimes it has streaks, sometimes it has dots, and I have to re-dye and re-apply. I've done everything the same way they say, but not sure why it turns out the way it does at times. However, it is a nice product all in all.

    We were in need of a new sofa and loveseat. We purchased an Italian leather sofa and love seat that was dryer out and faded due to sitting in storage for 250$. I used to coats of Rub n Restore conditioner, and was amazed at how well it conditioned and protected the leather and our beautiful leather set looks brand new!
