Furniture Clinic Easy Leather Restoration Kit | Set Includes Leather Recoloring Balm & Leather Cleaner, Sponge & Cloth | Restore & Repair Your Sofas, Car Seats & Other Leather Furniture (Black)

This product is AMAZING!!! My leather couch is 20 years old and was dried out and cracking a lot. The black leather was beginning to turn a little gray as well due to wear and tear. I bought this product and it was incredible. You first put the cleaner on it which really did a good job cleaning it. Then you put the polish on it and let it dry. I couldn't believe the difference. My family thought I went out and bought a new couch. One bottle was enough for the entire 3 seater couch and a matching leather chair. 100% recommend.

Did great reviving my old black leather sectional BUT it came at a cost. Took a lot of wiping after dried and several weeks before the color/dye stopped transferring. Our white dog sleeps on this couch and months later we still find him with black dye patches.

I bought a secondhand lamb skin designer leather jacket (very cheap). It was hung in sunlight. It had a lot of fading on one arm, and clearly was never treated. It had fading everywhere else too. I found a video on this product when looking up how to clean and restore. I bought this and the cream protector. I figured if I ruined the jacket, oh well. It was cheap enough. This product saved the jacket. It was a little work, but worth it. My jacket is so soft, the color is now solid. It looks new. I wish I took before and after pictures. I will be using this on my shoes and bags too. I highly recommend this product. Just make sure you also get the final step - the cream protector too.

Having purchased this product in 2 different shades of brown, I was hoping the black would perform as well as the others. I bought the black balm as part of a package with a leather cleaner, sponge and cotton cloth. The kit comes in a heat sealed plastic bag. However, it was clear that the black balm had been partially used. There was balm smeared on the inside of the bag and on part of the lid. I thought it might have leaked, but when I opened the jar, it was clear the jar had been opened previously and was not full. The other jars of balm I bought previously were single items, the jar was tightly sealed and the balm volume was 99% of the jar. The jar that came in this package looked like someone had used a cloth to swipe out the lid in the first usage, but smeared some balm into the thread of the jar lid.I cleaned the bar stool seat with the cleanser and sponge as directed. It was okay. These stools are in the kitchen and take a beating. Food spills are evident. The cleanser did take up the gunk that fell between the leather and wood chair backing, but the leather felt "squeaky" clean. Other cleansers I've used on leather have something that seems to treat the leather so when you're done, the leather feels clean, but soft. This is almost like liquid soap mixed with water. I felt that if I didn't get the balm onto it quickly, the leather would dry out.The black balm was surprisingly ineffective in re-coloring the faded leather. I've only done one coat and buffed it out, though. Still, with the dark brown, I only needed one application. The medium brown needed 2 coats, but I think that was because the leather I was treating was between medium and dark. The medium brown has more red tone, which is what I needed. Back to the black, the first coat did not appear to penetrate in areas that were the most faded. These are the along the back of the cushion and are exposed through the chair frame. They do not get abraded from sitting, but are exposed to sunlight. The seat area that gets the most use and feels more worn absorbed the color better, but not as well as one would expect for black. Also, unlike the two previous jars I had, the leather did not feel conditioned after buffing. I'm going to clean the other bar stools with the cleanser I used with the brown balms. That cleanser is made by a different manufacturer. If I get a different result, I will update the review. It could be that the cleanser that came with this package simply did not prep the leather as well as my other cleanser. Unfortunately, when you buy the balm on Amazon as a single product, black is not available. Amazon only sells the black in this package.

I was gifted furniture and the leather was not torn, just very worn. The leather now looks brand new. This is an awesome product!
