............................... When applying the dye, do not leave too much on. But, the most important thing is, when you do a section, do the whole section. THEN, LET THE SECTION YOU DID COMPLETELY DRY BEFORE PUTTING ON ANY FURTHER COATS.

If you let it dry all the way, the areas that have enough dye will no longer take any dye, but the areas that need more will still take it. As it dries is what leave the even finish. I was done when I was happy with the finish being even enough.

I will gather a list of products that I used and post it. Even the pads that I used to strip off the old dye made a huge difference. I used the round applicators that some gals use for make-up. They absorbed a certain amount of old dye and that was it. Time to get a new one. They were only $3.00 for a 100 so that part was not an issue. Other things we tried did not absorb the old dye off the leather. ......................

OK, no more suspense, What products did you use? Dye, cleaner, etc? If it looks anything like the couch it gotta be niiiiiiiiiiiice!

What did you use on couch? The couch Ron did with the "Leather Honey" also looks great!

I have always used hand cream on my 68 seats they stay supple but still age a little. But then again no where close to the usage the family room couch, and recliner gets............!
