Fiebing's Acrylic Resolene (4 Ounce, Black) - Protective Acrylic Leather Finisher - Flexible, Water Resistant Top Coat for Dyed Boots, Couch, Purse

Dyed my shoes really well needs a sealer on top of it though

I recently dyed a motorcycle vest using Fiebing's Black Leather Dye. It did a great job of restoring the color, but the black color would transfer to anything it rubbed up against, not matter how much I buffed it with a clean cloth. I carried the vest to a local shop which deals with leather goods and inquired as to how to stop the transfer. I was sold a product called M&B Quick Shine 48, and told to wipe down the vest with rubbing alcohol prior to applying it. I carefully cleaned the vest and applied 2 coats of the Quick Shine. It was NOT effective in stopping the color transfer.I then did what I should have done to begin with and went to Fiebing's website and discovered the right product for the job is Resolene, a leather finisher. Having put 2 coats of Quick Shine on the vest previously, I used saddlesoap to once again clean the vest. I then let it dry overnight and applied Resolene twice, letting it dry between applications. I did not dilute it. After letting it sit overnight, I wiped it down with a clean, soft cloth and there is no longer a color transfer. It works beautifully!!!

I have a collar that I wore for years so of course there was wear and tear. Didn't wear it for awhile due to this because I didn't want it completely ruined. Used this after using filler to fill the holes and it works great. No color bleeding onto my neck and no effect when I wear it and sweat. It does not feel tacky though my husband had better luck spreading it with a glove on and using a torch lighter to dry it faster for more layers. There is a smell when it's just done but just let it sit overnight and it will be gone, and it's not so strong that you can't work on this in a bedroom. When using a rubber glove to apply its easy to spread due to the product not being too thick. Over all love this product.

I followed the directions exactly and did what everybody said do and it worked perfectly. My chair is beautiful.

The media could not be loaded. Great for finishing leather hats! Color stays nice.

I ignored all the research I did re: suede (you can see other ignored directions in my review for the "original CatHole").This is my experience:I used suede dye on a pair of top quality Italian made *purple* pumps (only $64 for new!). The stitching did not take the dye completely. Dye xfer too. Used the black version of Resolene over the the dye job. Stitching now black. HOWEVER, I wish I used this full strength in *only* the stitching areas and diluted 1/2 with water for the rest. Overall, the suede texture is a "gone-er" but it's not patent-y either (it's an *interesting* surface - I'm pretty happy overall)If I did this again (probably will), I'd not use a wool dauber near the edges - I'd use the same teeny eyeshadow brush I used when dying near the edges.Bottom line: very impressed at the lack of dye Xfer after use & making the thread black.

I bought a used saddle that had been dyed black but not sealed. You couldn’t handle it without getting black hands. I cleaned it 2 times with an aggressive cleaned then sealed it with this product. Problem solved and the leather is so soft now.

First time I used the black. Matched with pro dye works very well. I did two lighter coats.
