Know your leather type (quick test)

The most important factor is whether your leather is pigmented/protected or aniline/unprotected. Try a small water droplet test in an inconspicuous area:

Pigmented / Protected Leather

  • Paint-like protective coating
  • Water beads and does not absorb
  • Common in auto + most furniture

Aniline / Unfinished Leather

  • No protective topcoat (stain-like finish)
  • Water absorbs readily
  • Often high-end furniture

FAQ

Where should automotive customers start?
Start with the Automotive Leather Dye Color Charts to browse by manufacturer and interior color name. Then select the option you need: Recoloring Kit, Deluxe Repair Kit, or Dye Colorant only.
What’s the best kit for a leather sofa with worn arms or faded cushions?
Most sofas are protected/pigmented leather, so start with the Leather/Vinyl Furniture Recoloring Kit. If water absorbs quickly, it may be aniline and you should use the Aniline Leather Recoloring Kit.
Which furniture kit covers both repair and recoloring?
If you have tears, holes, or deep cracking and also need color restoration, use the Deluxe Leather/Vinyl Furniture Recoloring & Repair Kit.
What if I don’t know my leather type?
Use our Leather Identification guide. A simple water droplet test often distinguishes protected/pigmented vs aniline finishes.
