   LA Z BOY Mahogany leather chairs

   Ordered the sample (only $1.00) and the color was exact. Ordered the mahogany leather dye and the clear prep and finish sealer and my chairs look new again. One chairs is 18 years old, the other is 12 years old. The product is easy to use, just follow the instructions.

   Absolutely blown away

   I’m absolutely amazed at the results. We’ve had this well loved leather sectional in our family room for 12 years, it’s in great condition physically, but the color had faded and looked horrible. I saw this product on TikTok and figured it was worth a try. I wish I would have done a true before/after photo but after doing the test spot I was so excited that I just jumped right in lol. We did 2 coats of mahogany and 2 coats of sealer and it was completely dry and non-transferring by the time I checked on it 3 hours later. We were sitting on it again same day. It looks amazing now and even better, we used less than 6oz (bought the 18oz) for an ...More

It looks amazing now and even better, we used less than 6oz (bought the 18oz) for an oversized 5 seat reclining sectional!!!! We applied it with a gloved hand and then buffed with a microfiber cloth as we noticed right away the sponge absorbed too much product and didn’t spread it super well and at the time we were worried about running out of product. There are no streaks or splotches and the sealer gave it a nice sheen. I love the result.

   Are you kidding me!!!

   I actually read some reviews before I purchased and learned to get mahogany for dark furniture. I purchased the 8 oz bottle of mahogany and couldn’t believe my eyes!!! My dark furniture (nice pleather lol) had seriously worn spots on the seat and head. I was ready to put it on the street. I rubbed the product on and I swear to you they just magically disappeared!!! Saved me thousands! I have been telling everyone I know about it! It is worth every penny!!! Thank you rub and restore!!! Wish I would have took before pics.

   Leather on recliner was beginning to wear in certain areas. I can no longer tell where it was.

   Rub n Restore worked perfectly

   I was skeptical when I first decided to do this project but the staff was extremely helpful and the product worked better than expected. The leather couch was expensive when we bought it and I was worried I would make it worse but It looks better then when we bought it 10 years ago. It was so easy to do. Definitely recommend.

   Amazing!

   I was skeptical at first, but the finish worked wonderfully and saved us thousands in replacing furniture! While it definitely doesn't look brand new, it is a huge improvement and worth every penny!!

   Product is amazing!

   I have been looking for a new leather sectional for a couple weeks and I happened to come across this ad for Rub n Restore. I didn't give much hope in restoring one of the arm cushions but I figured what the heck. I tried it and it is absolutely amazing. Looks like brand new. You saved me over $5,000 in purchasing a new leather sectional. Thank You.

   Worked so well I'm going to to more...

   This is embarrassing to say, but it took me about 10 months after I purchased my supplies to actually do this project. Everything still worked perfectly, though! Parts of the couch cushions were rough and scaly, but easily repaired with the filler. And the kit was super handy, with the sandpaper and plastic tools. Color-wise, I got great results from the Mahogany diluted with Clear. I love that RnR includes some plastic gloves, and long stir sticks for the colors. The original coloring on the sofa is mottled, and applying thin layers with a sponge made it easy to apply more color where I needed it, and just enough on the other parts to make i...More

The original coloring on the sofa is mottled, and applying thin layers with a sponge made it easy to apply more color where I needed it, and just enough on the other parts to make it look consistent. It took me 3 or 4 tries to get it exactly how I wanted it, and it was incredibly easy to redo it. The other matching pieces we have aren't really damaged, but now that this one looks new again, I'm probably going to spiff them up as well!

   Perfect

   Changed the color of 12 years old brown leather sofas to mahogany color, came out very satisfying. Initially, had a tear and faded, and were searching online to restore leather sofas. Found out rubrestore videos and are very helpful. Highly recommend their products. Bought a 16oz bottle of mahagony dye, did three coats and after dye dried applied two coats of conditioning sealer to give a glossy finish.

   Pure Magic

   My parents had a set of real leather couches that were a beautiful khaki colour initially; however, after roughly 15 years of sitting in the sunlight, parts of the leather had turned an ugly green colour. When my parents decided to upgrade to a new set, my Dad did not want to throw the old set out simply due to cosmetic issues. Other than a few cat scratches on the side and some sunken cushions, they were in good condition. He ordered thick foam from Amazon and restuffed the cushions for us before moving them into our man cave. They are by far the most comfortable couches so we were pleased, but they weren't very pretty in our home. I researc...More

   My parents had a set of real leather couches that were a beautiful khaki colour initially; however, after roughly 15 years of sitting in the sunlight, parts of the leather had turned an ugly green colour. When my parents decided to upgrade to a new set, my Dad did not want to throw the old set out simply due to cosmetic issues. Other than a few cat scratches on the side and some sunken cushions, they were in good condition. He ordered thick foam from Amazon and restuffed the cushions for us before moving them into our man cave. They are by far the most comfortable couches so we were pleased, but they weren't very pretty in our home. I researched leather dye options for 1.5 years and was annoyed that you cannot buy leather dye anywhere in Canada, so I kept putting off ordering due to shipping and import fees. However, enough was enough. I finally bit the bullet after visiting RubnRestore's website constantly. I ordered colour swatches first and we decided on Mahogany. I was a little nervous they would look red, but they don't! I cleaned the couches with alcohol first, and I also used Flite because the leather didn't seem very absorbent to me (probably from sun damage). The first coat was streaky and had a slight red undertone. I had to use a damp sponge and also a small paintbrush for all the little folds, but i took my time and it went well. The second coat was incredible! No more streaks and a nice dark brown colour (can't really see red undertones). It dried within a couple of minutes and has not rubbed off since sitting on it. My only issue is that my cat has already scratched the side, but I have lots of product left for future touch ups. I was also given a coupon code for international shipping which helped a bit. My parents are extremely impressed with the transformation! Also, we had a brown leather Lazy-Boy recliner that I also dyed so it looks like a complete set now. I ordered two 16 oz bottles and used a bit less than 1.5 bottles for two coats on everything. Thank you, RubnRestore! Huge upgrade!

   This Stuff WORKS!

   OMG!!! This stuff is AMAZING! Not going to lie, I was skeptical! We paid about $3K for this couch years ago & have hated that it faded/wore the way it did. We were about to ditch it for a new one when I saw your product! Thank you for giving this couch a new life!

   Had to troubleshoot but now great results

   First the good: this product goes on easy and looks absolutely phenomenal after the initial application. The color blends well and makes my couch look brand new. The bad: even after being allowed to cure for a full two weeks, the color starts to rub off in high wear areas after a month or so. The attached photos are about 6 weeks after product application. Every month or two I have to go re-touch up my couch to get it looking nice again. I've gone through an entire 8oz. bottle in a little under 8 months. If the color were more permanent, this product would get a perfect 5 stars from me. As it stands, it's about 2.5. UPDATE: After ...More

   UPDATE: After my previous review, Lesandre reached out to me to discuss my project and suggest ways I might improve my results. She took a great deal of time and care suggesting various solutions and ideas. She also kindly offered a few free swatches and product samples to experiment with and see what worked best for me.
   
   I ended up going with a somewhat lighter color which is closer to the base color, so that any wear is less immediately noticeable. That combined with the Satin Sealer product has made the finish on my couch MUCH more durable. Where before the product would only last for a couple weeks before needing a touchup, it's now a couple months, and requires far less product. Considering there are 2 little kids and 3 large dogs abusing it daily, I'd say those results are more than acceptable.I can't imagine that any product is going to perform much better, given the conditions we're inflicting on it.
   
   I really appreciate your taking the time. Based on Lesandre's absolutely stellar support, combined with the very noticeable improvement in my results, I'd give the product 5 stars. I absolutely recommend it, and will be purchasing again in the future.
   

   Reply from lesandre:

   Hi Patrick, touch-up may be necessary on color changes, which is why we suggest a mottling technique, particularly on non-absorbent leathers. It may be that the leather needed more aggressive cleaning or stripping. Adding more foam or batting to cushions and pillow to plump them up will reduce stress on the leather and your efforts. We'd be happy to troubleshoot the issue with more information like was the leather absorbent, what did you use to clean, did painters' tape adhere, are dogs using the couch every day?

   This product was super easy to use and our leather chair looks great. We were very happy with the results and with the cost to make our chair look like new again.

   Perfect match

   Mahogany was perfect for touch up in head area of Flexsteel couch. Perfect to blend in and clear coat went on well too. Clear is needed for best match to original finish.
