Repair your leather Sofa – Not sure where to start?

Do-it-yourself kits to repair your leather sofa have been advertised for years.  The ads make it seem like you can repair torn leather or vinyl so that the tears are barely noticeable, but you have to be very talented ­­­to do a good job and make it look right otherwise you end up with a sort of goopy mess that doesn’t quite look right.

Using DIY Kits to repair your leather furniture

It takes a lot of practice and experience to repair an area, make it flexible enough to last and blend in the color to match.

The steps for do-it-yourself kits include:

• prep the area
• apply a subpatch
• line up the torn area
• fill in the cracks
• buff the area down
• apply a grain to match
• use color dyes to blend the color to match your leather.  Even experts have a tough time with that.

You would probably have to repeat the repair process several times before you finally had a feel for how it all works and by that time you’d run out of the product.
