Customer Reviews

I ordered this product to repair some cat claw damage to an ivory leather chair arm - the cats liked to be on the arm while we sat in the chair, but then jumped off and their back claws damaged the leather in several places before we quit letting them be on this piece.

The ivory color was not too hard to recreate, but it took many tests on an inconspicuous spot on the bottom of the ottoman to get the color exactly right. I used the included color matching table and started with a small amount of white, added a TINY amount of yellow (not even a drop), then had to re-add several drops of white (the yellow is EXTREMELY vibrant and overpowers the white easily). With a final small amount of brown - again, not even a whole drop - I got an exact match and applied it to the arm of the chair with the included small flat plastic applicator. I didn't mix up enough to need the sponge-tipped tube applicator, so cannot comment on that part of the kit.

The only way you can tell a repair has been done is to look in very bright light at an angle. The color is exactly the same, but the reflectivity of the repaired areas is a bit duller than the original leather. I can probably use a leather conditioning product on the entire area to fix this, but haven't done so because the chair is not where the lighting will ever be bright enough to have this be an issue.

I think this is an extremely cost-effective product which, though it takes some time to get the color right, can certainly be used to do minor repairs such as cat damage. I don't know how it would handle larger damage.

I should start by saying that I only used the dye - I have not tried the repair substance because I haven't needed it. But the die was easy to mix since everything you need is included and the instructions are very clear. Pouring the mixture into the applicator was easy, and the applicator itself was ideal for covering up discolorations on my couch. There were several spots that had turned almost bright orange from wear on an otherwise dark brown couch. I made 2 applications on most of the spots, and 3 on the really bad ones. It dried pretty quickly between applications and the finished result was beautiful! The only thing that I'm not fully satisfied about is that the sheen of the dye is shinier than my leather, so if the light is shining on it just right, you can see some of the spots that I fixed. Not sure what can be done about that, but I'm going to try using some leather conditioner and lightly buffing those areas to dull the sheen.
