Description

These colour changing kits are a complete bundle that include everything you need for colour changing on leather furniture such as recliners, dining chairs, sofas, lounge suites and ottoman. Please click the “What’s Included” tab above for a full list of products included in the kits.

Uniquely Formulated Colour Pigment Liquid

The included colour changing pigment is highly concentrated to get excellent results when going from a light coloured leather to another light coloured leather or going to a darker colour leather. However, going from a dark colour to a light colour may not always be possible and will at least require a few extra coats of the highly concentrated pigment.

The top coat sealer is used prevent the colour from rubbing off since the colour changing pigment doesn’t have as many self adhesion or bonding agents itself.

Please note that any stitching will be coloured over with the pigment as well.

What's Included and Coverage Guide

Leather Colour Changing Kit Instructions

To achieve a successful and permanent change of colour to the leather, follow each step in numerical order, always starting with 1 1, 2.

Step 1 – Leather Wash

Spray the Leather Wash directly onto the leather surface and use the cleaning brush to agitate the dirt, oils and other contaminants from the leather surface and from deep within the embossed grain. Then wipe clean with the lint free cloth.

NB: The leather surface MUST be free from all dirt, oils and contaminants to achieve the best adhesion of the products.

Step 2 – Sanding

Using the 600 grade grit paper, lightly sand the entire leather surface to disturb the tannery clear coat. You are not looking to scratch the leather surface or sand it smooth, rather you just want to sand enough to expose the pigmented layer.

Step 3 – Prep Wash

Spray prep wash directly onto the leather surface using the lint free cloth to further prepare the surface and remove the tannery clear coat, any stubborn dirt, oils and contaminants.

Step 4 – Repeat 2 & 3

Repeat steps 2 and 3.

NB: If you need to use leather filler or glue etc (sold separately) to make any repairs, now is the time to apply these as per the individual product instructions.

Step 5 – Leather Primer

Apply ample Leather Primer with the sponge provided in a circular motion ensuring a thin even coat is achieved and use pressure to advance the adhesion of the primer. Apply two coats and allow to either fully air dry for approximately 1 hr between coats or use a hairdryer to speed up the drying process.

Step 6 – Leather Recolouring Pigment

First, strain all the pigment using the paper strainer to remove any particles from the recolouring pigment. Apply the first coat of recolouring pigment using the sponge. This is best applied in a circular motion whilst applying pressure to advance the adhesion, paying particular attention to high traffic areas, seams and hard to reach areas (you are not looking to get full or even coverage with the first or second coat). Allow to fully air dry between coats or use a hairdryer to speed up the drying process.

Step 7 – Apply More Coats

Apply further coats of recolouring pigment with either a sponge, foam roller or sprayer Apply approximately 3-4 coats to achieve an even coverage (expect more coats if going from a dark colour to light colour) and allow to dry fully between coats.

Step 8 – Wait 24 Hours

Wait 24 hours after applying the last coat of recolouring pigment, before proceeding to the next steps. Do not touch, sit on, or use the leather item.

Step 9 – Top Coat Sealer

After 24 hours, strain the top coat sealer with the paper paint strainer to remove any particles from the sealer. Apply 2 even coats of top coat sealer using either a sponge, foam roller or sprayer. Allow to air dry fully between coats or use a hairdryer to speed up the drying process.

Step 10 – Wait Another 24 Hours

Wait 24 hours before touching and using the item as normal.

Step 11 – Leather Moisturiser

After 14 days, apply ample Leather Moisturiser to all areas of the leather using the lint free cloth to protect the new coating. Once dry, polish the leather surface. Note, you may experience slight colour bleeding onto the lint free cloth when applying the moisturiser, this is normal for the first time and should not happen on further applications.

Step 12 – Maintenance

As with all leather products, ongoing regular care, cleaning and maintenance is required to ensure durability and longevity of the leather and its coatings. Sofa Rehab recommends using our Leather Care Kit every 3-4 months.

Caution – If a spillage occurs on the new coating within the first week, use a paper towel and carefully dab/pat the stain to clean it off and DO NOT RUB.

  1. Before commending any repair, always pre-test the products in an inconspicuous area.
  2. Please note any use of our products will only be successful on a real leather or vinyl surface that is in fair/good condition, clean and free from contaminants such as oils, dirt and grime.

Pro Tips:

  • Us a hairdryer to speed up drying times.
  • Use a foam roller kit to apply the pigment will use less paint and save time.
  • Rinse the sponges and foam rollers after each stage to preserve for future use.

Very efficient service and very happy with the results. There were a few scratches on the seats of my cream sofa which now looks 100% better! I would definitely recommend this Company.

Had some peeling of the leather upper layer up to the size of a 5 cent piece. Didn't think this product would work but I was desperate. I was very surprised with the end result and people could not believe the difference. Would highly recommend.

Excellent service, swift replies and good understanding of my personalised requests for leather sofas and chairs that I have refurbished to date. Durable and reasonably-priced products with convenient delivery and payment options.

Worked a treat. Over time, I had bleached the headrest of my dark brown leather recliner due to the peroxide sanitiser that I had in my spa. A couple of coats of the Leather Colourant makes it look brand new...It was a patch the size of a dinner plate and you would never know now. Great product, works a treat!

This product is amazing! My cream leather sofa is 4 years old and well looked after, however it was looking dirty.

Sofa Rehab has lifted the grime from daily sitting and the colour has improved about 2 shades! It looks brand new now!

Highly recommend this kit- the brush and clothes in the kit are excellent and the cream is very easy to apply.
