Customer Reviews and Before-After Photos

Matching the leather chair patina was a challenge, the seat cushion, arms and back are different shades. The color samples were a big help figuring out what to order since my plan was to refinish the ottoman only. After filling the cracks with the Vinyl Repair Compound, I started with the Mocha then used a sponge to dab on the 1:1:2 Mocha/Tobacco/Sealer mix in very thin coats. A few drops of Bulletin Red paint tint pulled everything together. I have been woodworking for 40 years so matching colors is no problem. Dark over the light base mimics wear, as seen in the photo the creases in the chair cushion is lighter than the seat and edges. The very thin coats adds a depth to the finish and echos the chair patina. This was an easy and fun project.

I wanted my mom to hang on to her 25 year old stressless chair, but the arms were in really sad shape. One arm had a large hole and both had severe cracking from years of wear. I used the subpatch kit, the leather filler repair kit, the leather glue and the beige leather finish. The transformation was miraculous to say the least. I've included a before and after photo. The "before" photo doesn't tell the whole story because I took it after gluing in the subpatch. The hole was gaping with stuffing coming out. Everyone in the family is amazed at the results. RubnRestore is the best!!!

I have an older Stickley chair that was stained and absorbing water. A friend mentioned how pleased she was with Rub'nRestore, so I tried it. I kept to the same color, and all the stains disappeared. The sealer has restored the luster as well. While it doesn't look new (20 years of use does leave a few indentations in the back) it does look amazingly good! It was simple to use. I am absolutely delighted! (Now what else can I restore?!?) Wish I had before picture of ink marks, Coffee stains, and who knows what else!

I wanted to change the color of my sectional in my family room to darker color so I chose the slate. I love the outcome my sectional looks like a completely new one. The process was not hard and it took about 12 hours of work. Thanks Tub and Restore!

This project turned out awesome!  I ended up mixing 2:1 mahogany to cherrywood. Thank you so much for you help. I have already referred 4 friends. I’m super happy with the way they turned out.

I am beyond thrilled with my result- the top is the before and the bottom two are after.  I fully did the seat cushion and spot did other areas on the chair but I think the match was very good (mix of Cherrywood and Tobacco). Thanks for all the great advice and videos!

I am not that in love with the color but I know I can change it. The product is easy and it worked beautifully. I love the new life this have my couches.

I bought a white sectional after I bought a recliner. The recliner was only six months old but it didn't match the sectional, so I ordered ivory and did a color change, but it was way too white. I sent a piece from the bottom of the sectional for a color match and it was almostma perfect match.

Besides having the best customer service around, they really know their stuff.

Thanks for a great product. You were so helpful and made the process way less intimidating than I thought it would be! And I was worried it would feel stiff like it was painted but it doesn't feel any different than the untreated loveseat. Looks new again. I posted my pictures on Facebook and already have 3 friends that want to get some for their leather furniture!



2 parts Cherrywood darkened with 1 part Eggplant and diluted with Clear. Mottling technique used.

Attached are a series of photos showing the progression of my repair. This cushion top really should have been replaced but that is beyond me at this point. This filler is a next best solution and has saved a lot of sofas from the dump. I used the mahogany die with Clear prep finish. I always use Clear Prep finish. I have now fixed up and resold over 50 pieces of leather furniture, all from coming across a video with a pretty woman repairing a leather sofa one late night on YouTube. Go figure.

Customer Service is outstanding. They communicated with me after hours and tried to help. Unfortunately, the product was useless to me. I had previously ordered a couple of swatches to be sure I ordered the closest color for my project which was a Burgundy color. I ended up choosing a color they called "Wine". When applying the dye, it was more of a bright red and wasn't even close to the color of the "Wine" swatch I had ordered. Customer Service did send me a small bottle of Black which I tried adding a few drops at a time to darken the Red but to no avail. I ended up not using this product and ended up buying a vinyl dye spray at Autozone which worked great.

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!

Product worked excellent!! Only prob was I ran out and had to order another bottle to finish a couple more coats. I ordered the 8oz bottle originally and probably need another 2oz to finish. But I am ok with ordering another due to the amazing finish on my chair!!

I used this on a cream vinyl sofa, captain's bench and header wraps on our yacht. The results was amazing and they look brand new. I followed the instructions and cleaned everything with 409, used the rub n restore (about 4-5 coats) and then sealed with the sealer. Absolutely amazed at the results. Was going to reupholster, but no need now! I am beyond happy. Thank you rub n restore!

Used this on a sofa after getting another product from Amazon that wasn’t satisfactory. This worked great and sofa looks like new. Added some shine using the clear finish and water and was able to achieve a great semi gloss finish that matched the rest of the sofa. Highly recommend.

Sitting for 30 years and dry rotted we were about to trash this very difficult to find competition steering wheel or spent a fortune having it re-leathered the product and your methodology is excellent we let it cure no issues
