Customer photo review of Clyde’s Leather Recoloring Balm

The before and after photos speak volumes! I had to replace the insert on my drivers seat. I bought a replacement in black. With Clyde’s help I mixed black and green to achieve an excellent match! The balm covers incredibly well!

The color matched perfectly. Went on smoothly. I’m ecstatic since my sofa looks just like it did in the show room . That beautiful rich color is back! And the product doesn't come off on your hands it’s part of the leather. Ordered more for my boots and conditioner. Thanks for posting on Facebook no furniture store was able to help me on how to restore the color. You guys did!

This was so easy to do. I started with just one square because I was afraid it would be a mess. I was wrong!!!! I wiped this product on and that was it. It dried very fast. It did not wipe off. I even took a white towel and tried to buff it. Because of it, being black, I just knew it may rub off on the towel…. But it did not! It was fast and easy to apply. As I walk by it and admire how well it turned out… I thought … I have to leave a review! (Which is something I never do)

I have been searching for something to fix these seats for years! I have tried EVERYTHING! Since I NEVER give up, I was searching again this week and found Clyde’s Leather Care Kit and decided to try it out. What could it hurt, right?!? It came in today and I tried it right away. I am VERY SATISFIED with the results! If you have leather, especially king ranch leather, and your seats look like mine did, give it a try! I couldn’t be happier with the end result! I HIGHLY recommend it, as well as wearing gloves for the application. My hands got a little dirty, but it did come off easily. GREAT PRODUCT!

Dyed my white leather couch brown and it completely hanged the room! It took three coats but each coat required less to cover fully. 10/10 (this is my second project with this company and I've gotten perfect results both times!

I love restoring vintage couture bags. Particularly when I find them at 10% of retail cost! I LOVE Clyde's products! Much easier to use than dyes, which can be uneven and affect finish. I am a professional artist and am a stickler for quality paints and brushes. Clyde's fits right in with the rest of my tools in my studio.

I cannot overstate how amazing this stuff is! We were resigned to buying a new couch because ours had big patches of discoloration and looked awful. I googled, found this, and decided it was worth a shot. We got the dark grey and dark brown to mix, and after a few coats, our couch literally looks brand new! I’m so impressed and grateful!

Worked great! I don’t like wearing gloves when working on projects and it got all over my fingers but washed off so easy!

Customer photo review of Clyde's Paintable Leather Filler

I NEVER leave comments - good or bad. Happy to do this one because it deserves it. I'm currently restoring a 1987 Porsche 911; in which the drivers side seats had numerous rips and tears. Thought I would make a last ditch effort before paying for an exact match leather/dye repair out of EU (>$1500). I heard about Clydes and watched a few videos. VOILA!!! My wife and kids couldnt believe it. I'm ticked because it was so bad I literally didnt bother taking a 'before' pic because I "knew" it was going to be a bust. I had done seat repairs before and they were all awful. Full convert here. CLYDE'S is a literal MIRACLE product. I still cant believe it. I have sent the pic to the guy I was going to have repair it. He saw the condition of the rips and numerous tears - and even he said "What the ####! Man, thats a pretty good job considering the condition, and your experience doing this" Well done Clyde's.

Clyde to the rescue again. I have a very expensive designer brand cream colored lamb leather jacket that oxidized and caused it to look blotchy yellow. It looked terrible. I bought beige color because I wanted to mute the ugly yellow oxidation. It did just that beautifully and it’s wearable again! Thank you so much!

Works great if you ask me! My leather had no cracks just wear marks. Cleaned and conditioned the leather first, then applied the recoloring balm. Did a coat, let it dry, buffed it and did another coat. Very happy with the results. Highly recommend!

This was such a great kit. I was thinking I was going to have to recolour the whole chair but the colour actually matched so perfectly. So happy with my whole experience.

My saddle was getting very discoloured, and I’m pretty happy with this recoloring balm ! I skipped the deglazing part thinking my saddle was absorbing enough, but I think I should have used it, because applying the balm in circles made a lot of streaks. So I had to improvise and tap it in (just like makeup with a beauty blender), took a long time but no streaks at all ! It’s not perfectly seamless like I wanted it to be, but it looks much better as you can see in the photos. I haven’t applied the conditioning cream yet, so I hope it’ll make it look even better and smoother ! In conclusion, definitely use the deglazing to make sure your leather is totally absorbing

Amazing results! Stupid how easy it is to revive a 30year old leather seat, a child would be able to get the same result. This saved me a ton of money. 10/10 ⭐️ / With love from Sweden

Our 17 year old leather chair was not looking good. The structure of the chair was still comfortable, but it was an eyesore in our living room. These products saved the day! 3 hours of labor followed by curing resulted in what looks like a new chair! We are so pleased with the results! We used only 1 kit, however, we felt we needed more cleaning foam and deglazer (only 2 oz.?). We barely had enough to finish the job for those steps. Overall, we will sing the praises of these products! Just feel that for the price of the kit, we should not have been panicked that we couldn't finish 1 chair and ottoman. Thank you for understanding and we are getting rave reviews on social media over the project. Expect more sales. Sincerely, The Dancers

I have a really expensive cream colored purse that turned yellow and had stains where it looked hideous. It was not usable and I almost threw it out. I figured might as well try to recolor it- I have nothing to lose. I tried to other cheaper brands and they didn’t cover anything. I saw the reviews on this but none for cream or white. This was my last attempt. It worked surprisingly well. I chose light beige which took the yellow tint out of the leather and covered the browning at the handles. The bag is back to being a solid cream color that is usable. One note is to be careful around metal hinges on bag as the color will cover it (you can scrap it off metal with fingernail). Overall very happy with the product and will use it again on any other leather damage I incur. Thank you

This is the best product ever. It brought my extremely dirty white purse back to life. It looks just like it did when I first got it! It was an extremely time consuming process, especially since I was trying to lighten the leather, but it was worth every second! I’d buy it again ten times over.

Great product! Easy to use and get amazing results! The color match was perfect. Check out my before and after pic in this review. Plan on using multiple applications if the leather is very cracked, but a little goes a long way.

LOVEING this Clyde's Leather Recoloring Balm is an understatement! My purse looks like new. It went from very worn everywhere to AMAZING! Next is to purchase some for my leather furniture.

Customer photo review of Clyde’s Leather Recoloring Balm

I had to leave a review for this company. I purchased a 10 year old leather chair off of Facebook marketplace. It was in good condition, but definitely worn and faded. I figured I’d try to revive the color and bring some life back to it. The number one thing I was worried about when looking for a leather coloring balm was that it would leave cracking and flaking. But I found this company and the reviews were so positive that I decided to try them out. I was completely blown away by the results! Just the recoloring balm alone made my chair look new again AND made it softer. It was a perfect color match, easy to use, and brought this ten year old chair back to life. The remoisturizing cream was the cherry on top to ensure added softness and that I was caring for my leather. 100% recommend this company! It brought my 10 year old chair back to life and now it can live on even longer.

Customer photo review of Clyde's 4-Step Leather Recoloring Kit

I decided to recolor my parents old leather couch for myself because it was a good quality and buying a new one would cost over $2K. I was skeptical because it’s a dark color and I didn’t think I would be able to cover it. I was very pleasantly surprised! I tested on a small area and I actually thought it wouldn’t work, it took 3 coats because it was dark to begin with but after the third coat it looked brand new. My advice would be to make sure to do the deglazing step very throughly. The areas that were harder to cover are ones I didn’t deglaze as well. It also took more to color it than the suggestion (though I did need 3 coats which is partly why), but after it was finished I spent $250 rather than $2,000 on a new looking leather couch!

I bought these to use with my leather crafts-tooling, dying, etc. I love cream based dyes, as they are harder to spill and highlight my stamped images better than liquid dyes. The Clyde Leather dyes are available in a nice assortment of colors. They are easy to apply and to clean up after. (I just wash the applicator sponge with soap & water.) There is an odor, but it is minimal and I do not find it bothersome. My photo shows a test piece with some tooling and 3 coats of pink.

I refinished an 18 year old Century Sectional that had been in our sunroom and was greatly distressed. I followed Clyde’s directions to the letter. It took several days to allow the cleaning and deglazing to completely dry on all cushions. It took a more time and effort to get the color restored and balanced than I anticipated working one cushion at a time. But, I am very pleased with the finish and I’ve had numerous compliments. We will using this sectional for many years to come.

This product is amazing! It’s a bit of work, but worth it! The colour was spot on, and the instructions are clear! I bought more to finish up the rest of the couches

Customer photo review of Clyde's Leather Clean, Prep, and Condition Kit

I think this kit is needed if you have something you really care about perfect results. For something less precious you can get away with just coloring, but I am relieved I ordered the kit. Especially helpful is the conditioner creme. You can add periodically to keep it nice and protected.

This sealed the scratches and peeled leather from our raymor & flannigan bonded leather couch. I used two colors to achieve a perfect match quite effortlessly. I just finger painted swirling and then smoothed it out and went a little darker coverage around the edges. I did notice the product is wearing off a tiny bit so I will reapply & recondition. Very happy overall. Impressive!

My dog had scratched the leather badly on the sofa. It was easy to use the conditioner to prepare the leather for the color. Has lasted better after a couple months than the treatment a professional did. My friends are impressed!

This product is AWESOME. The chair and ottoman had 30 years of sun cats and neglect. We were ready to take them to the dump and as a last-ditch effort we tried your product. Well to our delight they look new and can be used for many years to come. Things went so well we did two more chairs with the same excellent results. Ty and Cindy

With some luck, the perfect color was chosen. This product completely changed the appearance of the seat of this leather chair. So thrilled! It looks like new again!

The product has been amazing. It was so easy to use and it saved our brand new beautiful chairs that were destroyed by the sun. It took me no time at all to complete the project and the chairs dried very quickly . I have recommended this product to a lot of people and I wouldn’t hesitate to use it in the future.

I WAS A BIT DISAPPOINTED WITH THE COLOR - TOO DARK HOWEVER I GOT USED TO IT, AND LIKE IT. I WISHED THEEXPLANATIONS WERE BETTER AND ONE WOULD NOT HAVE TO LOOK FOR IT ON THE SITE.

This stuff is amazing! So far I’ve ordered 3 different colors for different chairs, and it works wonders. This vintage Ekornes chair was cracking and discolored EVERYWHERE when I picked it up. I used the dark brown refinisher all over and it looked almost brand new! Even my husband was amazed. I also love that a little bit goes such a long way. I did the entire chair and ottoman with maybe 1/4 of the small container. Would definitely recommend!
