Review: Amazing Dye! - I made a big mistake. I asked my 9 year old son "If you could only get one thing for Christmas, what would it be?". I was expecting the answer to be "An Xbox 360" since he had been wanting one for a year. I already had one wrapped and under the tree, so I thought this was a safe question. Boy was I wrong! His answer flabbergasted me. "A teal baseball glove." A WHAT? Now, it is important to note that my son is a very good baseball player. His dad was a very good baseball player and has worked with him. He plays on a team and it is the one thing that he loves more than video games. I just wasn't expecting an answer like this in the middle of winter when he hadn't touched a baseball in months. I asked him why teal? There is a baseball video game. One of the players has a teal baseball glove. It is apparently awesome. So this began my search for a teal baseball glove. After searching high and low on the internet and in real life I discovered that teal baseball gloves do not exist. I found one that was manufactured several years ago, but it is no longer made and a very expensive collector's glove now. It also was teal & black. He wanted solid teal. So I found myself in a bad situation. I had asked a 9 year old what the one thing he would want for Christmas was and he had given me a very good answer. He asked for something simple. Something that would encourage him to play outside, with other kids. (He is shy and baseball has helped tremendously with that). So there was only one thing I could do. Dye one. I searched for info online and found a baseball glove collectors forum where they were discussing dyeing gloves for restoration purposes. They recommended Fiebings's Leather dye. I googled their website and found that they didn't have a teal dye, but they did have Turquoise and Aqua. The Aqua looked closer to teal on their color chart. I sent an email to their customer support and explained my project. A very friendly person emailed me back and we discussed my project and he recommended a stripping product to use before dyeing and a sealing product to use afterwards. Very helpful customer service. I got a very light colored glove from Play it Again Sports. This glove had the kid's name written on it 50 places with sharpie. I was skeptical about the dye covering it, but it worked amazingly. You cannot tell that there was ever anything written on it, and it looks like a brand new glove now. The dye was very easy to use. It took only about an hour to dye the whole glove, including using the stripper and getting into all the little nooks and crannies. I forgot to buy some gloves, and ended up getting quite a bit on my hands. Of course I was dying a baseball glove. If you were dying something flat you could probably do it without gloves. The bottle said that rubbing alcohol would take the dye off, but I didn't have any. It wore off in a few days. On Christmas morning my son was SO excited. He still believes in Santa, so I boxed it up and wrapped it with the same paper his gifts from me and dad were in. Then I put a note from Santa in his stocking explaining that when Santa told the elves what he wanted they didn't have any teal leather, so they couldn't make him one. So Santa had called me to see what else he might like and I had offered to dye one for him. Santa then explained that he had sent me one of his old gloves and the supplies to dye it and I had done him a huge favor by doing the work. I would definitely use this product again. It made Christmas morning an amazing experience!
Review: Highly recommend, but beware. . . - If you go to Tandy's website you'll see stern warnings about not using this product to refinish leather furniture. It's a proper caution and I suspect Tandy got tired of dealing with angry customers ruining their furniture. That said, I had some pretty impressive results redoing my leather couch, but it may well be that I got lucky. My ten year old sofa was sun bleached, something I can't do a whole lot about. It also had an odd finish that wasn't analine nor any type of hard glaze. I suspect it was some type of latex coating, which in time faded to the natural light beige of the original leather. Making it even more difficult, I had used a refinishing product that was basically a latex coating that lasted barely a year before it flaked off. This dye is a true stain, not a coating. It will literally soak into the leather to color it. It also had the advantage of dissolving some of the existing latex finish that I couldn't remove so it blended in well with it. I applied it in small 16" square sections and worried initially that there would be streaks or marks where I started each block, but the dye penetrates very evenly thruout. I used a rolled up shop towel dabbing the dye on with the tip, using it like a mop and scrubbing it in horizontally and then vertically. It dries to the touch in about 15 minutes and you can sit on the leather in a few hours, but the dye solvent softens the leather which allows it to stretch so, so it's best to wait a day or so. The solvent also reacts to some types of foam making it expand some. I used a leather lotion after the dye dried. The reason for the warnings on Tandy's website is that you can not expect your efforts to result in a perfectly even color similar to when it was new. There are areas in the leather that will take up more or less stain than others so prepare to lower your expectations. I used one bottle of the tan with two bottles of Med Brown so it's a fairly dark shade which will minimize any unevenness in final color. Three bottles, or 12 ounces, was just enough to do the top and side of the seat cushions, the face of the back cushions, the front lower base and both arms of a 82" couch, but I didn't need to do the back and one side. Rubber gloves and plastic dropcloth is a must as this stuff is wickedly messy. Also be sure you have ventilation as the fumes are pretty strong. Best not to do it all in one day. So, if your leather is the type that absorbs water instead of beading it off, this would be a cheap experiment on the underside of one of the cushions to see if it would work for you. Use a dark shade similar to what you have and you may be surprised at how well it works. Just be prepared for an uneven color spread. Tell yourself it looks antique. For me it was a last resort before calling Goodwill and buying another sofa. Am very happy with how it turned out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Product...Worked Great
*by J***H on December 15, 2016*

I recently scored a pair of cherry-red British-made 8-eye DMs off a buddy of mine that they didn't fit. Worn in but in really good condition. I've never liked the bright-red color, and the old-school way of polishing over then with black takes a long time and still never gave me the color I wanted. I recently watched a YouTube video that showed using leather dye to achieve the desired deep, dark red 'oxblood' color and decided to try it myself. The whole process was rather easy. I prepped an area with newspapers and a couple old towels. I recommend doing this in a well-ventilated area as both the acetone and the dye have strong odors. You will want to do this somewhere non-carpeted as this dye is VERY permanent and you will not get it out of anything it touches. Gloves are a must too as I would imagine this stuff would dye your hands for days or weeks. I used masking tape to protect the yellow stitching, soles, and Air-Wair tags (as I mentioned the dye is VERY permanent, mask off anything you don't want dyed permanently dark red or whatever color you're using). I used 100% acetone and cotton balls to strip the original finish off. I used the included dabber to wipe on a layer of the oxblood dye on both boots on all the leather surfaces including the tongue. The dye seems to initially dry very quickly but I let them dry overnite and did a second layer the following evening. After adding a layer of the resolene sealer, the boots took on a nice sheen without being too shiny. I would imagine you could pilishband buff these to whatever level of shine you desire. They went from that fire-engine cherry-red to a really deep, dark oxblood. They already look great but I think that after polishing a little black into the creases these boots will have a really smart 'vintage' look to them. It also helped mask some toe-scuffs very well. I would imagine that black dye on black boots applied the same way would make them look damn-near brand-new. I have a pair of black 8-eyes that I may try it on. Very pleased with the results and would totally recommend this dye for refinishing your boots or giving them a makeover.
