I bought this product in cognac to change the color of a black vinyl full sized bed frame that I’ve had for about 3 years. I was so impressed with how easy the product was to apply. I purchased the smallest sized container still have about half the bottle or a bit less left over. I highly recommend this!

Thank you, just did it this weekend. Worked well. I will say it does help to watch your videos online before doing the work. I was a little nervous on the first coat. But it came to together well after the next coats. I really cant believe the transformation. It looks great! Mine was a little more time consuming with the brass tacks, but it looks really good.
It seems to feel a bit different than the actual material than what was started with. I’ll be curious to see how it lasts.
Your customer service is exceptional as well. Emails were answered promptly. It is good to know there is someone on the other end rather than a stock letter or res...More

Here are some before and after photos if you wish to publish. I put these up on Instagram with your hashtag and have gotten multiple responses on how good it looks.

This stuff is amazing. I only wish I had taken some before and after pictures. Our boat helm seat was so badly sun damaged that we were going to throw is out and buy an new one for $750. After some filling of the area where the vinyl texture was gone and coloring the seat with marine white rub n restore, it looks like new. The marine white also matched the original color perfectly so I didn't have to worry about blending in with the undamaged areas. I couldn't be happier and strongly recommend giving this product a try. You will be amazed too.

We bought our sofa second-hand. I was disappointed when we picked it up ( at night) because I thought it was black. However, I figured I might be able to work with the color - especially since I loved the shape and style of the sofa.
The previous owner told me that there were no scratches, tears, etc, but when we saw it in the daylight that wasn't true. I contacted her about it, but did not get a reply. I then conditioned the sofa (it was so dry!) which helped, but I wasn't quite happy with it.
All of this led me to you. You were so helpful with all of my questions during the process and your wealth of information beforehand was invaluable....More

All of this led me to you. You were so helpful with all of my questions during the process and your wealth of information beforehand was invaluable. I researched many choices, but this is mainly why I went with you- because of your customer service. Having someone to talk to who understands the process, developed the product, and isn't just someone answering questions at a call center helped me make my decision and I honestly am so thankful.
I love, love, love my sofa now. My family loves it too and it looks so expensive! It is the sofa of my dreams and your product made it softer, more beautiful, and it now has the look of a beautiful leather jacket that is perfectly worn-in. It is absolutely stunning.
Your product was so incredibly easy to work with. I was completely astounded at this realization, but you knew this because of your experience with it. Now I am looking for other items I can restore using your product.
I also posted before, during, and after pics on my FB page. Many of my friends asked about it and I gave them your information knowing it is a product I highly recommend.
My husband has a small business- a bespoke cabinet/woodwork business. He started building porch swings in our garage ( 6 years ago), to designing and building huge (jobs) in his own workshop. I am very proud of him and I was able to retire from teaching as a result. I help him and run the house too. We are constantly looking for ways to move forward (in his/our business) and life. I will always look to support and buy from a small business whenever I can. I am so very pleased I purchased from you.
I worked for Nordstrom from 89-02, when it was still small and just starting to expand. My level of customer service that I expect is extremely high due to this experience. You, your customer service, and your product completely exceeded that. Everything was exceptional.
I know this is a very explanation of my experience with your product, but I am just so incredibly pleased with the outcome. Thank you so very much for developing it and, again, all of your help and knowledge too.

Finally finished! Re-stained the wood as well, THAT turned out to be the time consuming part! Loving the blue!

Great product! Did a Florida convertible interior and it covered well, conditioned and took away water and burnt leather defects. Can’t thank you enough for making it look new again 26 years (and too many hot sun days) later. Made a world of difference on the door panels too!

Amazingly easy and just amazing rest. Prepare to be inundated with orders, as I shared on a decorating FB page and got close to 400 people in less than an hour excited to try it for themselves.

After I finished all I could say was.... WOW!!!! It is an amazing product. I spoke to mother and daughter. They were super nice and very helpful. CC (mom) helped me make the VERY wise decision not to change the color of my couch right before Thanksgiving. She suggested the mahogany based on photos and she was absolutely right!!! It covered the worn places and the sofas looked great for my guests!! I only had time for one coat!!! I will put another coat on after I recover from the holiday.
I can't say enough positive about their product and customer service!!!

I cannot believe the results! I am so pleased. This is exactly what I hoped the project would turn out to look like. It was a long day because there were three pieces but so worth it! I mixed the cognac, tobacco and a little rust and diluted with the clear finish as you suggested. It took two coats and sometimes three in the darkest areas. I watched the video and used the mottling technique to spread the color. It dried quickly and we are letting it cure before sitting on it. We paid $700 for all three pieces used. It cost less than $200 for the color. I highly recommend this product!

At this point, my sense is that the color, midnight blue, is not as dark as the sample that was sent. Also, It's been about 8 days since application and I can still rub off some color with a terry cloth rag if I apply only a moderate amount of pressure. I'll give it more time (luckily I tested it in an inconspicuous location) but I'm kind of discouraged at this point. The chair I'm hoping to "treat" is in good shape and made of high quality leather. I'm trying to restore the original color (dark blue) which has faded a bit more than I'd like.

Much easier to do than I expected. No odor. Simple cleanup, no mess. Anxious to see how it wears. Helps on finances as I did not have to replace the 2 chairs.Highly recommend.

I was able to completely cover up my wine colored couch with 4 coats, plus a top coat/glaze mix. I love the color!

Just wanted to write to let you know how amazed I am with this product! I’ve never bothered to write a company I bought anything from before but I am just pleased on how my chairs turned out I thought you should know. The service was great too! You got back to me quickly regarding the color and product selection. Here are pictures of my before and afters. This saved me from investing thousands into new recliners.

Beyond my expectations! Took about 15 hours but well worth the elbow grease to complete a project as this. I'm beyond grateful for their products. Now I have a second hand pink leather sofa to do. Can't wait. Thank you so much for your help!!

Used on a top grain leather sofa of the non-absorbent variety. Easy to mix colors and blend clear finish for desired tone and sheen. I was matching a dull-satin-not-quite-matte-ish. Easier than I thought it would be. Could be because the instructions provided were great. All the info you need.
If you're thinking "well I'm not good at this type of stuff".... Doesn't matter. Its pretty forgiving Just buy it. I'm reasonably certain you wouldn't regret it.

I absolutely love your products. My family room couch looks brand new. So easy to do from the repairs to the clear finish. Your instructions on YouTube was a big help giving me the convenience to do this. Thank you.

This product is so wonderful. Easy to get great results. I would suggest watching as many videos as you can. You can then go right to your project and get great results. I did think before I began the project that it might look good but would feel like plastic, not at all. So very happy with the result. Saved a bundle. Customer service awesome!

I wanted to follow up with you and let you know my couch touch up came out great! It was surprisingly easier than I thought. Thank you again for your help and advice, it is greatly appreciated. I may even get motivated to do an old recliner - so you will be hearing from me soon.
