Let me start with my skepticism about painting furniture. We went furniture shopping and got sticker shock the moment we walked into one those “outlets.” We weren’t impressed with the quality and options that were available. “They don’t make them like they used to” is definitely in play here. With the power of the internet, I googled other approaches and found your product rub-n-restore. Read the reviews, watched the videos and ordered the marine white. I have to be honest, I didn’t set the bar too high, and was not sure what to expect. Our lazy boy is almost 30 years old, chocolate brown in color. It’s a good quality chair, comfortable, with no issues, except for the dark color, I wanted an updated look. The process was long, it took us about 6 hours to complete, and after the third coat I was really doubting our decision. It took about 6 coats before I started to see some hope. About 8-10 coats (lost count) into it, we saw it! Thank you for creating this product that turned our well loved recliner into a newer updated version. The compliments we get from family and friends are amazing, they think we got a new chair. We are going to wait to see how it wears after a while before we tackle our coach.

I bought a almost brand new Natuzzi sofa on FB marketplace for $200, but when I went to pick it up, hated the beige color that would not go with my black, white and gray theme, so I found this online and bought it. I was so skeptical, and at first it didn't seem like it was going to stay white, as it was looking like a gray color showing through in places, but I got out the hair dryer and did a coat of the finishing primer, and kept going, and it started to improve. I was worried it was too dark originally to work with white. I've done about 6 or 7 coats so far and ordered some more to finish it up with a few more coats, but it's quite amazing how it's looking. I wish I had taped off the fabric around as it did get onto that (cushion fabric and such), but this is going in a short-term rental property, and the best part is that if it gets dirty, I'll be able to whip this out and touch up!

Yes, free shipping ain't free for us, which is why we have a restocking fee in our return policy and encourage folks to order swatches or send a sample for matching.

The brown leather on these old chairs was in need of an update. Lesandra was so very helpful with instructions on how to do repairs then mix/apply the blended marine white and beige colors to match a fabric loveseat I already have. It took about 10 coats to go lighter. Painting around the brass nails in the trim then wiping them was time consuming-but worth the trouble. It was my first effort in dying leather-but rub n restore products are really easy to use and the videos are a huge help. So happy to make something old look new again.

I was just going to buy replacement cushions because the white had worn off. I tried to order but with COVID, the every place I called was out of stock. I was a little hesitant because in the bottle, the Marine White almost looked like a Cream color instead of White. Turns out I absolutely LOVE the outcome. I'm going to use it on ALL of our boat cushions.

Had considered using vinyl paint on our "new to us" boat interior. I didn't like the color and there were rips in the seats. Then I found RubNResore. Someone had posted about it on a boat site. I did some research and decided to go with this. One big plus was not having to deal with all the prep work to use spray paint. There is a lot of vinyl in this boat, but its done now and looks great!

That is, don’t think about it. USE IT!  USE IT!  USE IT!



I did a ton of testing. I tested to spray paint for vinyl. All the players. Some worked well and others not so well.



I tested Rub N Restore and it worked great on my old worn boat seats. The help videos are great and gives you more than enough information to use the product correctly and effectively.



I called Rub N Restore for some advice and the Person on the phone was more than helpful. When I asked for her name she said “I’m Mom” I questioned “Mom?” She said. “I’m the older one in the picture on our website.” To call and speak with one of the owner developers should tell you something.



What a great product. I am so excited about it I couldn’t wait to finish my project and take pictures. When the job is done I will post some pictures.



Lastly. It was going to cost me $7000 to reupholster all my boat seats and panels on my boat. I am doing it for less that $150.

I have been for months looking for a paint for my italian leather sectional. Finally after many trial and error and money wasted, I ordered this product. It took me 6 hours to do the whole sectional. It is amazing how this product works SO WELL and easy to apply it. I have been a journalist in Puerto Rico for more than 30 years and I do have the respect of my peers and people because they know I am not biased. Simply my sectional is new again thanks to this product. First I ordered the bright white but it was extremely white for my off white sectional, so I returned it and exchanged it for the marine white that is perfect. Thanks CC (the creator of Rub'n Restore for taking my call) she was so professional and caring. I can stay forever talking about how great has been my experience with this product, so I have to say I am un love with it! And of course my renewed Natuzzi Italian Leather Sectional!

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.

Great product which did everything I wanted it to do. The base prep product set up the vinyl so applying the dye was quick and simple. The added bonus was the great service. I filled out questionnaire from which I got back product recommendation with quantities all filled out on an order form. They included everything you need to do the project. That made ordering easy. The instruction were easy to follow and spot on with what I needed to know.

My email question was answered the same day so I felt supported throughout the process.

Thank you!

This product is fantastic - (I am now mourning an older leather couch that my father in law owned that we gave away because we didn't know how to make it look better). It was so simple to use - do exactly as you are told by Lesandre. Follow the directions, watch the videos and you can't possibly go wrong. I am now in the process of doing another white chair and we ended up being game enough to purchase a second hand double recliner that was in rough shape because I am confident I could repair and restore it. I did it over an evening with good light and a couple of red wines. I highly recommend it (the red wine too!)

Our couches were given to us after they were put into storage with plastic over them and had yellowed. I’ve been wishing we could see them in their prime for years now! I knew they were in crumby condition but when compared to how they look now I didn’t realize how bad they had gotten!

It’s definitely scary seeing it go on! It’s like watery paint! But then the water dried and just the color is left. I did two couches and it took a little over an hour for each one. A large bottle (yes it needs lots of layers but not as much when covering lighter colors) it lasted for both couches but not the backside of the one against the wall so I’m getting another small bottle to finish.

Overall it’s amazing!! Texture after feels chalky at first when compared to the greasy old seats but already smoother after a day. Maybe it’s nice with the clear sealer but I way prefer a matte finish so I won’t be using the clear coat.

I’m trying to think of all the other couches I can do this to now!!

I just wanted to take the time provide you a review of your service and product. When I was looking into your product versus SEM paint you were extremely helpful in communicating the differences and I chose to try Rub n Restore.

My Yacht seats had yellow stains in them and after utilizing your product they came out looking brand new with such little effort. Your service and product was more than I hope for as they look new. The seats are soft and look brand new. I've enclosed a couple of a pictures before and after.

I have sold a couple of my yacht club buddies on your product and have already placed orders.

I had used this marine white paint on our pontoon boat seats in Florida and was stunned by how easy it was to use and the end result. We live in Canada and accessing products from the USA during these pandemic times is not easy so I contacted Rubnrestore by phone and spoke to co owner CC advising her that I needed to restore our white vinyl seats of our pontoon boat here. CC was so helpful and arranged expedited shipping that allowed it to cross the border seamlessly. I received it less than 48 hours after ordering. I’ve now completed 2 coats and the upholstery looks brand new! And so easy to apply. Thank you CC. I highly recommend this product.

Recently just completed refinishing my 2003 Moomba Wakeboard boat seats with the Marine White. I was skeptical, but after a quick alcohol wipe down cleaning, I applied as directed. After a couple of coats and the clear finish product, they look like brand new seats! Nothing has rubbed off on clothes, or dog paws, etc... I highly recommend giving it a try if your seat cushions are worn, discolored or in need of a fresh, new look!

The grain/texture of a material can affect appearance of color. Also, cat scratches require repair before recoloring. This article has more information and a video about repairing cat scratches.

I was a skeptic, but not anymore.  Your product is amazing!  We live on a lake and our boat stays on a boat lift throughout the summer and since we use it almost every day in the summer for that morning ski run we had gotten lazy about covering our boat.  The summer sun took its toll on our interior.  Thus it became a decision to use your product or reupholster our 2000 Mastercraft for about $3500.



I am amazed.  I wish I had taken pictures of the before.  The upholstery did not have any rips. It was not flaking, just fading from the sun.  So prior to wanting to use the boat for the year I used your Marine White product while the boat was still stored in the garage. It took me about an hour and then I let it sit for several days to cure as you suggest.  It looks almost new.  It was so easy to use.  If I slipped and got the Marine White on the blue or gold accents, I just wiped it off with a wet cloth.  Friends and neighbor are also impressed.  I could not be happier.  Thanks!

I just wanted to drop in and let you know that I finished my 1967 volkswagen with stunning results. I honestly thought I would have to replace the entire headliner/interior when i began the project. I chose marine white for the headliner, and red chili for the 2nd tone on the seats while documenting the whole process (although I did not take a lot of before photos because I still thought I was replacing everything). I’m a huge fan of your product and I’m glad I could support your family business :)
