Good product but instructions not accurate
I used the 'Light Grey' shade to slightly change a 'crazy horse' leather bag from a warm taupe grey to a more cool, steel grey. The picture shows my test piece although my camera doesn't capture the colour very well as the contrast is not as pronounced as this in real life. The top is the results of two thin coats and the bottom the original colour of the bag. However, the instructions could be improved although perhaps the problems were the leather I had. I found that I needed to: 1) work in small sections at a time, about the size of my hand. 2) NOT, as the instructions advise, leave it for 5 minutes and then buff off. I tried this and the product just started drying immediately and looking like paint with obvious swirls on the surface of the leather. I had to scrub it off with warm water and start again and at that stage I was worried I'd ruined my bag. I discovered that as soon as it touches the leather it starts to absorb and dye so INSTEAD 3) Wipe on a very thin layer and start buffing it away immediately, keep moving a microfibre cloth in circles until it is all buffed away - it will leave a thin coat of colour in the leather and no swirl marks 4) Be prepared to do another coat the next day (as the instructions mention). The result is a low sheen and a definite change in colour so overall I'm very pleased with the result of two coats but deducting a star for the stress and gap in the instructions.

Very effective product, excellent value for money and easy to use
Amazing product and exellent value for money. I used this on a heavily scuffed/scratched leather coat and I had very low expectations given the extent of the damage and age of the coat, but this has totally covered the damage - you can't tell it ever was damaged! It only took one application (super easy to use) and theres still loads left after covering an entire 4XL trench coat! I couldn't be happier with this and would very highly recommend. Before and after pics don't do it justice (due to light reflecting) but it looks brand new! (I have done some sewing alterations since using the product it, hence it looking slightly different shape in full pic - and it didn't transfer or rub off whilst sewing!)

Fair restorer but could be better
It's Ok but I agree that you have to be careful with their colour chart. I was tempted to get a lighter shade since it looked more compatible with my item, but in the end, the darker one worked, so be careful. The other is that it didn't really completely cover the scratches on the dispatch bag I use. There is no doubt they are less visible, but definitely not covered. Lastly, unless you have loads of items to touch up you will end with a massive surplus amount.

Works Wonders
The leather on my steering wheel was getting bad, I assumed it was dirt so I started to clean it vigorously, I realised it was not dirt and I may have made the situation more worse. As can be seen in the first 3 pictures. I bought this product following good reviews but not many for steering wheels, but took a punt anyways, I was sure this wouldn’t make my wheel any worse. Make sure you have latex gloves before using, 2 micro fibre cloths. Wrap one cloth around your finger and dab into the product and use circular motions to apply on affected areas, make sure you don’t leave any excess thick spots after applying because when it drys it’s a pain to buff, so always fan out the excess and blend it in to give you an even layer without leaving heavy spots. With the second cloth I found it easier to make it into a ball or fold it many times to make it thicker, this makes more of a cushion and ensures even gentle pressure while buffing away excess, again buff in a circular motion after 5 mins. The last picture is after 2 coats and I think 1 more coat will finish the job. This is purely because some areas were deeper than others and it’s much better to gradually build up rather than applying too much in one go. I also used it to blacken the stitches as can be seen before and after pictures and it definitely makes the steering wheel look a lot better. All in I would say this is a great product, does the job and will have my steering wheel looking brand new after the 3rd coat. Great value for money, the consistency is relatively thick and even after 2 coats I’ve only used the excess on the lid so this product will last a while. Lastly there is no smell to this product which is a bonus. 10/10

Such a good product. Red chair came up looking brilliant. Have used it in the past and buying it again reminds me how good it is.

Not Accurate Colour - Very Strong Chemical Smell
Bought this to tend to a red leather bag. Chose the colour based on their colour chart, but when it arrived, it was nothing like the displayed colour. Rather than it being red, this came looking brilliant orange. Applied to amazon to get it returned via a collection service as I was unable to get to a store to return it, but was only sent a label that I would have to print and then drop off the item anyway, which was no help. Thanks to the inaccuracy of the listing, and amazon's lack of collecting things from customers, I have now lost out on money for this product. Highly recommend buying something that is actually the correct colour. P.S. I do have this item in black too, so want to address a couple of things to potential buyers based on experience with this... The product has an INCREDIBLY strong chemical smell, such that was lingering in my living room for days even though I barely used any of it. Do use in a well ventilated area and take precautions if you have breathing issues or sensitivity. Use away from your animals and wear gloves so as not to get it on your hands. It is very messy and not in the most practical of containers given its very runny consistency. A little goes a long way, but that is the case in every aspect of it, so be mindful when using/handling it, so as to not make a mess or permeate the air too much.

ممتاز لترميم بعض درجات اهتراء الجلد لكن يجب مراجعة ااسعر
هو يرمم فعلا اللون ولا يؤثر علي الملابس عند الجلوس علي المقاعد بعد وضع المنتج بشرط ان يترك ليجف لمدة ٢٤ ساعة واتباع التعليمات المكتوبة. سعره مبالغ فيه خاصة انه موجود في انجلترا ب ٦ جنيه انجليزي. طبعا هناك تكلفة شحن لكن برغم ذلك سعر مبالغ

Färger gär bort!
Köp inte det. Färger går bort så fort du använder lite vatten på en tråsa. Tyvärr tyvärr. Jag har köpt två stycken till. Jag kommer att returnera dessa artikel så fort de är framme.

Très efficace !
Super, très efficace ! J'avais 3 trous dans le dossier de mon fauteuil, on voyait la doublure blanche et un trou était d'au moins un centimètre. J'ai mis plusieurs couches et les trous se sont rebouchés ! Je n'ai pas pris de photos avant, mais franchement, même si ce n'est pas encore parfait, c'est vraiment réparé ! Je recommande à 100%
