Tarrago Filling Paste - 50ml Leather Filler Repair Compound - Leather Restoration Crack, Burns, Tears, Holes Filler

I have a pair of old black leather boots that hadn't been touched since 2020, and sat in my closet slumped over instead of tall and upright (I didn't have inserts in the boots as I should have). The leather cracked where the boot was bent, and was also just old and decayed. I used this stuff - several layers with drying in between and nicely smoothed out with my finger and very fine sandpaper - then covered with good black shoe polish and voila! - my boots look great again! It's never going to look like new, but my boots went from unwearable/embarrassing to definitely can wear now! Worth it!

The media could not be loaded. Have used this product now on both “vegan leather” headphones and natural leather for a tear in my mom’s car seat leather. The headphones are a vegan leather “coating” that was peeling.Tips from product and other reviews are absolutely correct: go with thin layers. Wait the full hour between layers. With both rips, I used used a tool to place some product underneath the lifting leather, to help bring the two sides of the tear together, then (for the rip in the car leather) used painters tape to hold it flat to dry- note here that it needed longer than an hour between for the next coat because the tape holds moisture in. I used small metal spatula scrapers to apply. At the final layer I used my finger to add texture. It works amazing!In my opinion, the black isn’t a true black. I used Clyde’s leather recoloring balm in black to bring the color to a match in both the headphones and the car.Couple of tips overall: ensure the area is clean. apply thin layers. Wait the full hour between layers. If using the recoloring balm, don’t get antsy and try and use it before the filler has cured- you’ll have to redo it because of your own impatience ;) - I speak from experience. Not the fault of the product, that’s just user error.Works great!!

I purchased this to try and hide a repaired tear on my couch. Very easy to use and extremely pleased with the results. I thought medium would be too light so I ordered dark brown. I am having to redo the loveseat, couch and chair but it looks brand new. I did the loveseat first. I used a chalk brush and then wiped it. When I did the couch, I just painted with a chalk brush and let it dry. This was an easier process. Paint is self leveling and it looks amazing. Color covers well and furniture look brand new.Editing my review. I have had to reorder a few times because I did not have enough to completely cover all my furniture. After dying my chair and it dried, I noticed the top cushion was a different color. The product was mislabeled. Or is a lighter brown than the rest. When comparing it to 2 that I have not opened, the color was several shades lighter. Thankfully I still had extra left over so I was able to complete the project. I will be sending the 1 back for this reason. Hard to see in the photo but the one on the right is lighter.

It works but not as well as advertised and I am concerned about long term effects.

I've spent the last few weeks learning leather repair... Have purchased all kinds of stuff and experimented on some very rough black leather car seats, with major wear and cracks. This stuff is unique in that it dries to a super flexible yet durable coating. You can add another layer within 10 to 15 minutes. It's sandable which is just amazing as it almost feels like rubber when dry. Then you just simply top coat with a clear coat finisher like a matte or satin. Or you can paint it, then clear coat it. I also used it on my steering wheel that looked horrendous, totally peeled off, and just using my finger and applying three coats it looks amazing. Has a great feel to it when dry.The only product that is superior would be the professional heat cure compounds, where you have to use a heat gun or iron with a graining pad. I did figure out a way to add grain texture to this by simply taking a black leather jacket, and pressing it onto the wet surface, and peeling it off. It's water soluble so it just wipes right back off the leather jacket.These are a newer type of product called water-based polyurethanes. By being water-based it is extremely easy to work with. It doesn't get all tacky and difficult to apply.

This product was a waste money and time. It does not work as advertise and there is no instruction on it use

I have a pair of black logger boots that I love but the dang rabbits in my house got to and chewed up the leather on the toe of my left boot. Made me angry and I had no idea how to fix it. After some time, I found this stuff and thought I would try it. It worked really well and I can barely tell where the damage was now. Best of all, I haven’t done anything to make it really blend in yet. It dried very well and the sheen nearly matched what was already on the boots, which made the repair quick, easy and seamless. I didn’t use much, so now I have quite a bit more in case it happens again. And knowing these rabbits, that is a good thing!

So bought this to try and cover up the holes from some stitching. It says this is a paste, but it wasn't quite what I was hoping for. I was expecting it to be a thick paste and I applied it with a paint brush and it came on so thin it required a few layers to even remotely hide/fill them.I may look for something better, cause even after trying to layer it over and over it hasn't really hidden anything!
