Scratch Doctor Leather Colour Restorer Recolouring Balm Repair Treatment for Faded & Worn Absorbent Leather Furniture, Sofas, Chairs (Black, 50ml)

After purchasing my first real leather bag, I foolishly ended up over conditioning it. As you may see, with much naivety, I conditioned it to a point the colour was taken off the leather grain on the handles and the main body. My bag was ruined within two weeks and I accepted its fate- until I came across this. This has repaired and refreshed by bag when I thought all hope was gone! In the phase of trying to make up for my horror show, I spent hopeless minutes 'polishing' my leather bag. From even more bees wax to a turtle wax leather conditioner, to aloe vera wipes, I tried anything within reach like a mad man. Eventually, I came to accept the colour had faded and there was no going back for this leather bag. In fact, I soon sidlined this expensive purchase in my room with much regret. Another idea, however, came to mind when I tried black shoe polish and realised something serious for leather could work- this black leather polish that already has gleaming reviews. I'll cut to the chase and say this has entirely restored my black leather bag! Unlike a regular black polish you may use for your shoes, this version is different, arriving in a runny, creamy texture. As such, this proves to much of the product needed to both stain and polish leather surfaces. The more liquid texture, as emphasised in the description, penetrates into real porous leather to re-colour the grain like in the factories. I used paper kitchen towels to easily apply and buff into my bag. It only took a few minutes for the polish to seep into the leather and beautifully restain my bag to a brilliant black. While I watched it dry, so was afraid there were going to be bloches as I noticed some parts dried quicker than others. To much relief, the polish dried evenly without any oil or glossiness. I highly recommend to anyone to apply this in circular rubbing motions as this definitely helped ensure an even application. The colour matches exactly with the original black leather. The polish dried within 5 minutes, a final quick dry cloth wipe down and there remains no residue with the polish fully dried within the leather. I present to you my refreshed leather bag! I am so grateful this worked 😁

Bought to restore colour of faded black leather jacket. Glad I read other customer reviews first! Top tips: *Be careful when opening the tin. The contents are runny, like a thin cream (not like shoe polish). *Use in a cool place, not in hot direct sunlight, to avoid stickyness when applying to black leather. *Rub in quickly as you apply it as it soaks into the leather very quickly. *Use a second polishing cloth straight after rubbing stain into the leather to ensure even colour. *Leave for a while until fully dry, then apply a second coat to restore original black effect.

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

Does a good job but inappropriate container. I struggled to open the lid as the tin appeared to have been damaged in transit (no external wrapping). When I did manage to open the lid the restorer ran everywhere.

Grabbed this due to a YouTube video about leather seat restoration. I thought that for £12 it’s worth a shot, right? Expectations massively exceeded on my horribly abused (by the previous owners) Toyota IQ black leather seats. The pictures don’t really reflect the massive change, but I’m very happy with the result and will probably do another coat in a month or two after a weekly top up with some leather care to give it the best chance possible. Easy to use, high quality product which I’ll bee happy to recommend to anyone looking to improve the appearance of their black leather car seats!

Worked well on my car seat that got a little paint on it. Wouldn’t know it was there now.

⭐☆☆☆☆ Absolutely useless. I followed the instructions exactly as directed, but this product did virtually nothing to restore the colour of my leather. The results were nowhere near what was advertised, and it ended up being a complete waste of money. Very poor quality and massively overpriced for what it delivers. I regret buying it and definitely wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

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.

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

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.

Het smeert gemakkelijk maar de kleur verdwijnt redelijk snel. Te snel

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%

Great product. Works very well. 👌🏼
