Customer Reviews & Photos of Rub 'n Restore®
I LOVE THE SEAFOAM
I was asked by my doctor if I can restore handbags - specifically, her precious handbag she purchased while on a vacation of a lifetime in Italy, a bag that she had accidentally stained with sunscreen. I told her it would be very difficult to impossible to remove the oil based stain, but that I could try, but also told her that I could re-dye it.
I used the Seafoam RubnRestore and it came out beautifully!!
I love all the RubnRestore products - they all work excellently! Highly recommend!

Our sofas came out really really nice. We had to buy two bottles instead of one, but it did the job very nice. I recommend this paint to anybody for their leather couches. Thank you so much.
perfect match
Worked Great
My leather chair had some a few small partial splits in the leather, and minor cracking of the finish in the seat area. I got a consultation, and Lesandre recommended the cat scratch kit for the one section. The wine sample looked very close to the chair color for the finish, but I also ordered a smaller bottle of the cherrywood just in case.
I also ordered the cat scratch kit, along with the clear prep and finish.
The cat scratch kit worked great - I can't tell it was even there now. I was worried it might be noticeable as a harder portion of the leather, since it was in the arm rest area, but I don't feel any difference at all.

The wine finish went on easily, and blended in perfectly. The clear finish also went on easily, and matched the existing finish. I was very pleased with the results. I would definitely recommend the products!

32 years old and almost new
As you can see, the vinyl sun pad for the back of my 1994 Sanpan pontoon boat needed some work. It now looks almost new after using Rub ‘n Restore. If you follow the steps provided by the staff at Rub ‘n Restore, you will be amazed at the transformation from old to new. Enjoy.
An excellent cleaner and easy to use.
Yellowed leather Bedframe
I bought an expensive leather bed on facebook and I honestly did not realize how yellowed it was until I got home. I discovered this product doing my research. I was amazed how well it worked. It did take seven coats but I was doing bright white and the video did say white is the most translucent. I was very careful and used a foam brush and did very thin coats and checked for any drips before drying.
Very brown
came out brown and was mosit
The filler goes on white and dries more clear, effectively acting like a clear coat which can make the underlying surface look darker. Color is always needed to conceal a repair. If you believe you received a defective, please email us photos and more info at info@rubnrestore.com.
Repair faded recliner and couch arms.
This stuff lived up to its advertisement! Perfectly matched and like new. Same color and sheen! I’m amazed. I won’t have to purchase new furniture now.
Project results and insights
Treated 3 couches, two pillows, and 4 chairs/recliners. Offer the following advice. Lighter colors are harder to blend than darker. I would apply the dye, let it briefly sit and then apply the sealer. They suggest blending the two in one container, but I had different leather colors to address. The goal to smooth and blend the old and new colors while minimizing the damaged areas. Used car polish cloths which will last one application.

Found using quick glue helped seal leather wounds , but when it dries it turns very dark and lighter stain will not cover. You can use the glue but on very small areas. On lighter leather possible ignore glue option. Overall it looks good, blending and reinforcing colors. It does not take much product, so go with the smaller bottles. Our leather just absorbed these very quickly. Be patient and ready to move around the piece to get the job done. Constantly evaluate your progress to catch missed areas or corrections. You can do this project and save a lot of money..... Happy with the products, but check out slowly as the shipping options default to the higher charges. Suggest buying color samples first.
We are very much satisfied with the color match. It turned out great. We learned as we gave 3 coats to each boat cushion.
Sorry no pictures. I would recommend your company always. Simple business transactions and whatever they promised, they fulfilled.

Excellent Product
This product along with the satin sealer worked fantastic on restoring the original vinyl carriage top on my 1979 Lincoln Continental Mark V Cartier. It went from faded purple to a rich burgundy. Very easy to apply and work with, make sure you take the time to prepare your work area and you won’t be disappointed.
highly recommended
I changed a leather chair from brown to green. It looked great, but the color quickly started to come off where my dog likes to sit. Come to find out changing color and dogs isn't recommended, but Lassandra was really helpful and sent me this cross linker to mix into the green. The color is holding up much better. And it's easy to touch-up. Great products and customer service!
better than other conditioners
This stuff is like magic. Made my aniline leather couch supple again.
used this on boats multiple times now. Like the product
Couch piping
The color rust you sent my to do the couch piping work out GREAT thanks again
Chocolate Rub and Restore
This product is amazing. I changed my ottoman from an ugly grey to a beautiful dark brown. It now matches my sofa perfectly. I ordered two color swatches, and chocolate was an exact match to the sofa. I did six coats. It dried quick, and the next day the project was finished.
The finished product

Looks like New
I bought my husband a beautiful dark brown leather chair from Pottery Barn almost 10 years ago. Between two cats, a husband eating in the chair and sitting no where else, the poor chair looked like it was ready for the dump. In desperation I searched the web for a miracle. It quickly became obvious Rub and Restore was the answer. I bought 16 oz bottle of Espresso water-based conditioning color, a 2 oz bottle of black (in case the espresso wasn’t dark enough) and 4 oz of Clear Prep +Finish for Leather ((the original leather had a slight shine to it.) I read the great instructions from the Rub n Restore site and those that came up with a web s...More

I read the great instructions from the Rub n Restore site and those that came up with a web search for “Rub n Restore instructions”. It took three full days to clean, repair scratches, mix, test, mix and test again and apply the color three times. The results were fantastic. It looked brand new. We could hardly believe it was the same chair. I heartily recommend these products.
Couch is 25 years old and it took some work but it looks a whole lot better. One caution is the super glue should be used sparingly because it dries dark. Would be better if there was a product that glued but was could be stained any color. My want wanted to trash this couch but now it should last longer.
