Spray the cleaner over one area at a time, gently agititate into the grain using a soft scrubbing brush then wipe with a microfibre cloth. Repeat until all areas are thoroughly cleaned of soiling, waxes, silicones, oils and emollients.
2) If needed, fine grit sandpaper (800) can be used to smooth any areas that feel rough to touch.
3) Do a test spot of Black Jacket Reviver in an inconspicuous area, eg; the lower inside facing. to ensure compatibility with your leather and objectives.

5) Apply additional coats as needed with drying between each coat. Coverage builds with each layer.
6) Allow 48 hours drying before using your leather.
7) After a few days, Nourish (No.2) can be applied to condition your leather. Wearing/using your leather also helps to restore suppleness.

Quick back story but I love op shopping and around 5 years ago I stumbled across a $400 lamb leather jacket for only $12 in perfect condition. I have worn it to death ever since, even taking it on my trip to NYC last year. Last week I wasn’t thinking and put it through the wash. It had left the leather colour stripped with white dots all over. I have actually only done a patch test but this product works like magic and has saved me from a depressive spiral if I were unable to revive this treasured jacket of mine! The photo shows what one thin coat/ patch test has achieved, I plan on doing numerous coats!!
I am writing today to thank you for your help and product recommendation. Leather Hero product saved my $2000 Hugo Boss leather jacket which went awfully close to being chucked out.The renovation kit was so easy to use and I now have a 'brand new' jacket... thank you so much!
All I can say is wow!!! This product does exactly what it says it does. I have a very expensive leather jacket that was ruined by mould, but the reviver cream has brought it back to life and looks amazing. Thx
I count this as a lucky find. This product is great. It's easy to apply. It blends with the existing tone seamlessly. It really does take the jacket back to its youthful days. After using it, I found myself wearing those jackets again happily after having avoided them in the closet for years. Highly recommended.
I finally had the time to work on my vintage chanel camera bag. The bag was faded and had significant damage to the piping when I purchased the bag from an online Japanese vintage store. I used your black leather reviver kit to restore the colour and your leather hero leather filler and glue to fix the piping. Note: I had been quoted up to $400 to have the bag restored by various bag spas. I think it's a superb result, I am very happy with the final outcome using your products. Will keep coming back for more.
Bought the medium sized bottle to refresh a very sad men’s black leather jacket. It’s come up amazingly well! Some areas needed two coats, others only one - but there’s plenty left. Easy to apply, easy clean up after. Highly recommend this product!
I've just finished using your Black Jacket Reviver on my Walden Miller bike jacket. 30+ years old in good condition, but the finish was looking decidedly daggy. The result is absolutely stunning! It is easy to use and covers the scratches and blemishes beautifully. Don't have to buy a new one after all. I can't stop looking at it! Thank you very much.
I absolutely LOVED my purchase of the Black Jacket reviver. Used it to restore a vintage jacket that had quite a bit of wear on the elbows. It fixed it like magic and was so easy to use! So happy with my purchase. Thanks again ❤️
I bought this to revive a black leather handbag and it did a wonderful job. My handbag almost looks new again- a nice glossy look ( not shiny) and all scuff marks and scratches are gone.
My jacket needed love after not being worn for nearly two decades. After the mould remover and cleaner we used the jacket reviver snd now my teen has a favourite new item of clothing. Brilliant!
Used this on an antique 1950’s jacket that badly needed some love. Worked a charm on all the little bumps and scrapes. Together with some of the leather conditioner, that 70 year old jacket is back and beautiful. Thanks!
The item was perfect for reviving my old Jacket. It looks new again.Thank you very much.
Excellent product quick and easy to apply. My jacket looks new again!
This is a great product. Totally revived my very expensive but slightly fading black leather jacket!
Earlier this year I bought the black jacket reviver, amazing so happy!
I love this jacket but have been annoyed at the fading for years…Really appreciate such a great product :)
My lamb leather jacket lost colour when l lent on a bar that was sticky. The maker had no remedy but the black dye covered the mark and it is once again as in perfect
Finally used this on my Joe Rocket black cow hide motorcycle leathers - it has done an amazing job of revitalising the leather.
It took a couple of coats to bring back the required colour and gloss as I was very frugal/careful but the resulting finish looks really professional.like the product Graeme
This dye went on easily and my jacket looks great. Easy to use.
It's good product for my old leather jacket. Thank you
