Six years ago, I purchased a vinyl beige sofa and a lounge chair. I donā€™t know what happened, but the surfaces of the vinyl began turning green a couple of years ago, even though I had only used mild cleansers to clean the furniture. Visitors to my residence began remarking on the unusual/awful color of my sofa and chair. I tried many methods and couldnā€™t recapture the original color of this furniture. But the actual physical quality of the furniture was great. The color had deteriorated so badly that I needed to either replace the furniture, at a cost of about $800 or find another solution.

Six years ago, I purchased a vinyl beige sofa and a lounge chair.

Visitors to my residence began remarking on the unusual/awful color of my sofa and chair. I tried many methods and couldnā€™t recapture the original color of this furniture. But the actual physical quality of the furniture was great.

The color had deteriorated so badly that I needed to either replace the furniture, at a cost of about $800 or find another solution. So, I searched the internet for a solution and stumbled upon Rub n Restoreā€™s site. I viewed a ā€˜youtubeā€™ video of your dye being applied to a sofa and thought that, if this is true, it could save me a lot of money.

While being credulous, I ordered your beige dye and applied two coats to both my sofa and chair. Later, I applied one coat of your clear prep. The total time that it took me to restore my furniture, with your products was about 4 hours and the process was easy. I must say that your product was all that you advertised that it would be. My sofa and chair now look like new, when purchased. I must say that all your advertisements/promises for your dye and clear prep products were true. I am very happy and thank you.

Rub 'n Restore is like magic! Your product really works. I did my chairs in October 2013, and I'm still happy with the result 3 months later.

I ordered this product at 3pm mid-week and I was so surprised that it was on my desk the next day. Given I live in the same state....still that was incredible! The Dye worked as it was advertised and per the videos. Thank you very much.

ā€œI received your products today and couldn't wait to get started. I was only able to do the seat cushions and ottoman tonight, but those are what needed the most work. I am thrilled! They look so good! The cognac color worked perfectly. I love it. And it was so easy! I'm going to do the chairs tomorrow to get the color to match the cushions and ottoman. Thank you so much!ā€

ā€œFirst, I just used some Cognac dye and Clear Prep Finish to restore an imitation Eames chair and ottoman I found at a consignment store. It was pretty cracked and worn looking before, but now looks brand new thanks to Rub 'n Restore!! Everyone I've shown it to can't believe the transformation. The pictures don't do it justice but you can see a definite difference!ā€

OMG!!! I got your product yesterday and refinished my chair today, and boy was I blown away! This was a chair that my husband purchased for our first home over 20 years ago. We've tried everything to clean it, and nothing worked. We were on the verge of giving it away to Goodwill when I happened upon your YouTube video and ordered your product. All I can say is WOW! Thanks again, your product is amazing and I intend to put out the good word. This one is too good not to share.

ā€œI used the cognac as a base with a small amount of walnut to darken it and then tinted that with a little organic yellow from ADV Leather. I then glazed the couch with that color first. I then used a slightly darker version (more walnut) to put a second print coat on top. I used a mixture of the clear and the dull topcoat from ADV Leather to create the matte glaze. To deal with the streakiness of the Adv product, I would apply the colorant with the sponge and then go over that tapping with a damp wax application sponge (the ones covered in terry cloth) to smooth the application. Buffing with a polishing cloth also helped. I then top coated t...More

Buffing with a polishing cloth also helped. I then top coated the couches with a mixture of 60/40 clear/dull and once dried for a day buffed this to get the somewhat satin appearance. I am stoked! Having used the ADV color line to tint, I am very glad to have used your line to do the meat of the work. Looks really good to me. We will see how it holds up, but I think it should be good to go for awhile! Oh, I also added feet that I stained later on. No other improvements were made.ā€
