Pros:
– It works! I repaired a frequently used sofa cushion a year ago and the rips haven’t reopened. (New rips appeared next to the old ones; I’m hoping the nonwoven reinforcement backing fabric I added this time will prevent any new rips.) I had a rip pop open on a different sofa cushion immediately after I repaired it, but after following all the tips I listed below, I was able to repair it successfully.
– The burgundy and walnut brown were close enough matches to my furniture that I didn’t need to do any additional mixing, and they matched the Fortivo burgundy and medium brown recoloring balm.
– It works well on vinyl, too.
Cons:
– Two of the tubes in my kit were already dried out when I opened them. The consistency should be like mustard. If it’s like stiff dough, it’s unusable. Contact customer service if this happens. They sent me one replacement kit, then they gave me a 15% discount coupon for future purchases.
– The kit doesn’t come with a pre-mixed green. I mixed my own with yellow, blue, and a touch of black. I used the pre-mixed portion, then when I had to mix more, it wasn’t exactly the same shade as my prior attempt.
Tips:
– Follow the instructions closely. Do not rush.
– It’s better to do multiple thin layers than a thick layer. This stuff doesn’t work like spackle. You can’t go back after it dries and easily remove just the excess amount and no more. Wipe excess away when the product is still wet. You should have some overlap on both sides of a tear to make the repair stronger.
– Use a backing fabric to strengthen and stabilize the leather. The kit comes with fabric, but a nonwoven interfacing fabric that doesn’t stretch is better, especially when you need to cover a larger surface area for multiple rips. I used Corazza non-stretch reinforcement backer with adhesive, which is designed to use on leather.
– For sofa cushions, remove the casing, turn it inside out, attach the reinforcing fabric to the back, turn right side out, replace the cushion, then conduct the repair. The cushion puts some strain on the leather cover and may cause the rip to gape a bit. That’s OK. Better to fill in that gap with the repair product than to have it pop open if you repair it without the cushion in place. If you are going to replace your cushion cores with new ones, do that first before making the repair.
– If you can’t remove the casing, follow the directions for cutting and inserting a piece of fabric into the rip. Nonwoven fabric is better. Gluing it in place is better.
– If the edges of the rip still touch, glue them together with leather glue or superglue to give extra strength to your repair.
– The product can be applied with the supplied plastic spatula, a brush, or even a fingertip. The spatula works well in getting a smooth, flat finish. The brush or fingertip work well for pushing the product into cracks and scratches.
– If you have more than one rip on a cushion, repair them one at a time, especially if they are close together.
– The kit comes with plastic gloves which will help keep your hands clean, but they aren’t absolutely necessary. The repair product washes off with soap and water.
– To keep unused product from drying out, put a pin into the tube tip opening.
– Clean the spatula, brush, and mixing container with soap and water before the repair product hardens so you can use them again.
– Use recoloring balm to recolor worn areas and blend the color of the repair into the surrounding area.
– Use a good leather conditioner, such as Smith’s leather balm, to recondition and protect your leather now that you’ve got it looking good again.
I’m attaching before and after pictures of my repairs. Note that I also used recoloring balm on the burgundy and leather sofas, and I used leather conditioner on all three projects.

Overall I would use a leather kit again for a future repair if needed. This kit is fine (or I might try a different kit with more components).
Pros:
– worked well to repair a hole in bonded leather
– easy to get a pretty good color match
– easy to get a pretty good repair for a small hole
– includes a piece of backing material
– inexpensive
– durable / tough repair
– the glue material includes the color – some kits have the glue & color as separate materials
Cons:
– not enough repair glue material…& definitely not enough to practice or make many color adjustments
– the directions say you can remove the material at any time with water or alcohol – that didn’t work for me
– the glue material starts clumping/drying as you use it, so by the 3rd coat it was difficult to spread smoothly
– doesn’t include grain paper
– doesn’t include poly leather sealant top coat
– time consuming to get a very good color match
– time consuming to get a very good looking repair
– typo in the website mentioned in the instructions – it’s leatherplusshop.com (double s) and the website wasn’t that helpful anyway. But the paper instructions were fine.
– plan on several coats – like 1 heavy coat and 2-5 skim coats with drying time in between coats
– the mixing spatula worked fine for the first coat but after that I started using old credit cards because after the glue dried on the spatula it didn’t work well for me
I repaired a 2″x1/4″ hole in a bonded leather ‘distressed espresso’ sofa cushion with a light grain. The quote for a professional to do it was $175. In medium light from a few feet an average person wouldn’t notice it. I know where the spot was – it’s a little shiny & a tad dark – so I can see it but it’s not bothersome. See the pictures.
Suggestions:
If I did it again I would try grain paper (although reviews indicate that that is tricky). It would have helped if I could have removed the leather cover from the cushion (mine was permanently glued together). For the first coat, I used some of the colors I wasn’t going to need for the final coat, which gave me more glue to work with.
good luck!
