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 😁

Ordered some time ago and only just got round to using it. I had a very faded four pocketed, belted motorcycle jacket, that faded that the arms were almost a pale green shade. Used per instructions and it's delivered a superb finish. Coverage is good with plenty left for extra Coverage if needed. Very easy to use but do wear gloves as it is gel like in the tin. I used a small sponge to apply it and a soft polishing cloth to buff off. Great results so very happy. Job took approx 1hr after cleaning then obviously it cures fully in 24hrs.

Used it to restore my wife's old biker jacket, and to be fair it's done a good job. My only suggestion is to apply it quite thin over three or four occasions letting it dry completely between each application otherwise it tends to clump and stain.

Fantastic for rejuvenating black leather.I bought a 37 year old car with a worn gear stick gaiter and worn steering wheel.After about five applications, leaving a minute or so in-between each one and a good rub with a microfibre cloth the gaiter and wheel shine like new.After an hour or so I went for a drive and there was no discolouration on my hands afterwards.I had no trouble using the tin and as for reviews that claimed the liquid was still wet days later all I can surmise is that what they thought was leather was in fact plastic. Fantastic product giving superb results.

Used on my classic car seats. Quite creamy but goes on well. Wear gloves as it will soak through a rag. Make sure you buff really well after application or the next time you sit on the seat you will end up with polish on your clothes.

Works as describedEasy to useGood valueDries quicklyCovered cat scratches and claw marks on an easy-boy recliner. The little holes are still there but the cream colours everything black so they can no longer be seen

Worked an absolute treat.Didn’t need much at all. But make sure a remnants are polished of with a clean cloth otherwise it will mark your clothing.Also note it is very soft and can run out of the tin if not careful.

Arrived on time. I did find it difficult to open the tin, so having strong hands would help 😊I have only used a small amount just as a patch test. Colour matched well and a small amount goes along way.So far so good for me.
