Clyde's™ Recoloring Balm | Non-Toxic Material Dye & Restorer for Furniture, Car Seats, & More | 23 Colors

The media could not be loaded. I purchased these chairs and the leather was not in the best condition. They had cat scratched all over (see video). I did some research on leather repair and came across this product. After finding video reviews. I knew this was the right product. I can’t believe the scratches are GONE! They look brand new. Just follow the instructions and be sure to buy the conditioner. It the perfect polish for the leather to shine (see picture 1). Without the conditioner, the leather has a matte finish and the color will rub off (see picture 2). I save so much money using these products.

This stuff is amazing. My couch is almost 25 years old and it brought life back to it. It looks brand new.

It's not a magical product, but does a great job of improving the appearance of My leather seats.

I recommend this product. My leather furniture had been losing color due to 15 years of use. There are three pieces, and two of them had lost a lot of color due to improper cleaning. I suggest you buy enough of the product to paint the entire piece of furniture so the color looks uniform. This product penetrates the leather, absorbs the color, and dries quickly. I painted the most damaged areas three times over several days to let the color set. Finally, the furniture looks like new. To give the leather a shine, I used Howard Premium Leather Salve Penetrating Conditioner.

I spent over $60 on Clydes products (Leather Prep and Deglaze and Light Beige Leather Recoloring Balm) to try to repair my cream leather chair that has a stubborn sunscreen stain. First impression was that the product sizes were ridiculously small (see photo with ruler). The Leather Prep was 2oz or 4 tablespoons to remove the leather factory finish. Although I was working on a small area of the chair, I barely had enough product for the job. The Recoloring Balm is 1.7 oz. Second observation was that the Leather Prep smells an awful lot like pure acetone. The ingredients are acetone, methanol and ethanol at a cost of $29.99 for 2 oz! But I tried to think positively and followed the directions to the letter. The factory finish (together with the sunscreen stain) came off with the Leather Prep. I then moved on to the Recoloring Balm. The light beige was more of camel color than an off white. Using a very small amount on the foam sponge provided, it went on unevenly and the resulting splotchy color was just as unsightly as the original sunscreen stain! I cleaned the leather again for a second try but had the same unsatisfactory result. This product may work if you are changing the color of a light leather item to a darker color but please note how expensive it is. I wish I had put the money I spent towards a new chair.

I hate to post a less than positive review, and I may not understand how to apply it, but the result was almost like a paint. When dry felt more like vinyl than the soft polo leather. I tried to call the website listed phone number, but it immediately disconnected, and the live chat also did not respond. This is not intended to impugn, only to be objective.

Used it to color in the worn sleeve, shoulder , and bottom edges of my favorite black leather jacket. Gave it a whole new life. Great product.

Ok so my boots are old, and I figured try it out on them first. So here they are. I wanted black boots, so I tried this. I could do another coat, but for now I think I am happy with how it looks. I used it on a cavison and it looks beautiful! My goal is to use it on my saddle, but I want to know it will work. I will update in a week after I see how my boots look. This winter we will see how my saddle goes.I updated another pic. Two sides of my breast collar. One side I put the black balm on for the background, the other side I left brown. I love the look so far.Added 2 more pics. The light brown Cavessan is now black, the brown background of the bridle is now black.Edited: ok it's been a while and I ride just about everyday rain or shine. This should have flaked off or whatever other people are saying. It hasn't. It absorbed super fast, my leather was prepped and dry. I didn't "paint" it on. I used a Q-Tip for the bridle. This just works. I am probably going to update again when I do my saddle. It's brown and I want it black. I was leary of doing it, but everything has been so good! My boots are scuffed, but still black. This is just working!
