Hello, thank you for sending me the clear prep and finish. The chair ate the color so fast, I can’t imagine how hard it would be if the color was more saturated. I mixed it color rich at 75%/25%. I applied 3 coats, Plus some touch up spaces. And used approximately 2/3 of the bottle. It turned out perfect. Super dark brown with a small hint of red during the day time. The first coat was horribly streaky because I applied it in strokes. I was curious to se how it absorbed and changed as it dried. Much closer to paint than stain. The second coat was rubbed, than dabbed. It looked fine to me, but my wife wanted it darker. The 3rd coat was only d...More

Overall, I’m satisfied! Thank you.

WOW!!!!! I am completely impressed. This product was so easy to use. The chair looks like a completely different piece of furniture. Before I found Rub-N -Restore, I was going to sell it in a yard sale. Beyond happy with the results!!!!

Just wanted to say thank you for a great product and a great result! I've never done anything like this before and was a little hesitant to give it a try. Your website is easy to use and guided me thru the process of getting the cleaner, color and shine coat that I needed.
It took me a few minutes to get the right hand motion figured out to get keep the "marbled" color appearance of the leather. Once I did, the project went smoothly and turned out phenomenal.Thanks again (my girlfriend is ecstatic)!

What a fantastic product! We started out with 2 buttercup Natuzzi aniline sofas that had oil and other stains with sun damage but were still structurally sound. We first did them with your Cognac with a 50% glaze. We realized we wanted them to be darker brown and without the shine. So I ordered the Espresso and 3 coats later we are amazed how well they turned out. Thank you for a fantastic product, it couldn't have been easier to apply. You girls rock...

Here are some photos to show you that Rub 'n Restore works beautifully in New Zealand as well as in the USA! We are very happy with the results.
We used a 16oz and 8oz of cognac dye plus an 8oz of clear prep. We did 5 coats of dye, then a 50/50 with clear prep. It was still shinier than the original so we did a 6th coat of dye only to get the satin effect. There is still plenty of dye and clear prep left for any repairs in the future.The 20 year old dark green leather looks ok in photos but was rather tired close up as we brought up 3 kids who jumped all over it for years on end! It was also too dark for our current home decor. The Cognac lo...More

I really appreciated the instructional videos.
The cognac dye covered permanent ink, deep head sweat stains and unknown spills. I used the clear prep between coats, with the dye on some coats and alone for the final coat. I did this inside with pets all around, and the dye was pleasure to work with and made no mess while drying quickly.

My favorite comfy chair is allowed back in the living room after years of being banished to the basement thanks to Rubnrestore Cognac treatment!! Your leather "tonic" is amazing!
After going through your website information and videos I was ready to try it and I am SO impressed!
I ordered the desired color, which arrived SO quickly; prepared the chair, as directed; then I chose to pretreat with the Prep & Finish, which turned out to be REALLY helpful as the now pretty 'raw' leather didnt absorb the dye as quickly and I could 'move' it around easier. Finally I added some Prep&Finish to my dye to give the chair more of a satin finish ...More

And beyond thrilled with the finished product!!! THANK YOU LADIES!!

I’m somewhat cheap when it comes to furniture. With a baby and cat (and let be real, I’m really messy), I know our furniture will get a lot of wear and tear, so I take FREE furniture whenever I can. We were given a chair and loveseat in a red leather. It’s not my style, so I decided to change it! YALL. I used Rub ‘n Restore, Inc. Leather Dye and changed it to a beautiful Cognac color. I dyed both pieces of furniture THIS AFTERNOON. It’s so easy and pretty much foolproof. I still need to buff and shine the nail heads, but c’mon, the difference is crazy.
I love your product! Check out my before and after. From red to cognac. Easy and quick!

I just wanted to send you some pics of the finished project. I love it! Thanks for all your help. I used your repair stuff to repair the cushion and it worked great. And used the cognac making a 50 50 glaze with tha clear and wiping a lot of it off after it was somewhat dry to get a distressed look.
It took me a few minutes to get the right hand motion figured out to get keep the "marbled" color appearance of the leather. Once I did, the project went smoothly and turned out phenomenal.Thanks again (my girlfriend is ecstatic)!
