Repair tears, burns, holes, and pet scratches in leather or vinyl, and match almost any color

Multi-Color Re-Dye & Repair Kit by Doc Bailey's repairs tears, burns, scuffs, cracks, small holes, and scratches in leather or vinyl, and restores color to faded or worn areas. It comes with 7 primary color top coat dyes and a mixing chart to match your leather's exact color. Black, brown, tan, burgundy, white, and everything you can blend in between.

Use it on car seats, couches, recliners, boots, jackets, saddlebags, purses, belts, and furniture. If your leather is sun-faded, color-worn, scratched by a pet, or torn, this kit brings it back instead of forcing you to replace it.

What's in the kit

  • 7 primary color top coat dyes that intermix to match almost any color
  • A color mixing chart
  • The air-dry repair compound for tears, burns, cracks, holes, and scratches
  • Backing material for holes and tears
  • 3 grain papers to match your leather's texture
  • The application tools you need

It's highly concentrated, so a little covers a lot. No greasy residue, no rub off, no plastic looking shine.

Two kinds of damage, one kit

Color damage. Faded spots, worn edges, scuffs, and light pet scratches leave the leather intact but take the color off. Match the color with the mixing chart and cover the area with thin coats of top coat dye.

Surface damage. Tears, burns, cracks, gouges, and small holes break the surface. Fill them with the air-dry repair compound, press the grain in, then blend the color.

How the repair works

  1. Mix enough matching dye to tint the repair compound and still have extra matched dye left over to blend the repair afterward.
  2. Tint the air-dry repair compound with the matched dye. Pre-tinting makes the repair easier to blend and conceal.
  3. For a hole or a tear, place the included backing material behind it first. Then apply the repair compound.
  4. Place the grain paper over the repair and set a few pounds of weight on top to press in a good grain impression while it cures. Cure time is 12 to 24 hours.
  5. Once it is fully cured, slowly remove the grain paper.
  6. Inspect the repair. It may need a second fill. Repeat until you are happy with it.
  7. Blend the repair in with some of the extra matched dye.

Frequently asked questions

Can this kit fix a tear or hole in a leather car seat?

Yes. Place the included backing material behind the tear or hole, fill it with the air-dry repair compound, press the texture in with a grain paper, then blend it with matched dye. It works on leather and vinyl car seats.

Will the repair match the rest of my leather?

Yes, if you tint the air-dry repair compound before applying it. Mix your color with the 7 top coat dyes and the mixing chart first, then color the compound itself. Pre-tinting makes the repair easier to blend and conceal.

Can I match a color that isn't one of the 7?

Yes. The 7 top coat dyes are made to intermix, and most real world leather shades are blended from these bases. Follow the included mixing chart, mix small amounts until it matches, then apply.

Can it fix dog or cat scratches on a leather couch?

Yes. Light scratches only need matched top coat dye. Deep scratches and gouges get filled with the repair compound first, then colored to match.

Does this work on vinyl too?

Yes, the kit is built for both leather and vinyl, including car interiors and furniture.
