I literally screamed “nooo” when you cut into your couch. That’s the kind of self confidence I want some day.
Lol right
Me too!!! 😱😱😱
This woman cut her leather couch to show how to repair it. Who could possibly click dislike to that!?!
Isnˋt her sofa😂
Thank you for sacrificing your couch in the name of knowledge.
My jaw literally dropped at the beginning. Then again at the end. Nicely done!!!
What a great video! I didn't see such a realistic and convincing instructional video in UA-cam all these years.
Just ripped our leather sofa moving it and now I have to tell my wife. She will be heart sick and I already am till I watched your video. Sincerely, thank you so very much.
This video is one of the best i saw so far, no fake repair , very simple, well explained and demonstrated. No super crazy video tech and special effect. Thank-you. I hope today you are doing fine in this coronavirus crisis , please stay safe.
Couldn’t find the bottle of Rub and Restore anywhere. I’ve wasted so much time looking for this product and then finally found their website only to not find the bottle she’s using. This is a small business trying to sell a kit. If a single bottle of black run and Restore exists, I’d buy it. Instead, I’ve wasted a load of time because she wasn’t honest in the video about the product.
I use the same technique but instead of a toothpick I use a popsicle stick for the glue. You can trim them down if they are too wide. Less messy than a toothpick.
I still can't believe she sliced the sofa just to show the repair technique!
My heart literally jumped out of my mouth when I saw that woman cut into her couch😲
This was an unbelievable video. So well spoken; clear and to the point. Can't really get over how you actually cut your own couch for the demo but when you REALLY know what you're doing.. Super fantastic. A++++ The internet/youtube needs more how-tos like this!
That almost made me sick seeing her cut into that beautiful sofa, lol! Great tutorial--thanks!
Her presentation is perfect, her great looks makes it even better.
I love instructional videos that show "real" things, like mistakes and flaws I learned much more from this than from "see, everything is perfect and it is so easy (not)"
Some good ideas for the tiny hole I have in my leather car seat. This was one of the better videos on seat repairs. Thanks for posting it.
Wow. Amazing results. Thanks for sharing.
You are good Lesandra. Informative, fast, to the point and lovely presentation. Thx
Thank you i have learnt to do perfect the sofa holes thank you😀
these types of guys are brilliant.
By far, the easiest and best explained tutorial of all in this category. I watched the top 8 of these type repairs, and some of the rest are ok, but this is top. In the video, she didn't name the Super Glue brand, but I think it was Loctite Super Gel Glue, which I have used before and is a great product to complement the Loctite Vinyl, Fabric, and Plastic Glue.
Wow! Great video. This realllllly works. I had a 3 inch rip with some jagged edges...not as clean as the one here. The substrate is key. I started to get kit on Amazon without substrate until I found this vid. Using denim patch as recommended here adds another level of foundation since there is an adhesive on the back of the patch ( you won't be using it, but it def adds to firmness of fabric). Wish I could post before & after pictures pictures. This saved my couch! thanks!
Very well done video - clear, concise and helpful!
Beautiful job . Thx for the great video
Thank you so much, just finished moving and caused some damage to our couch. Almost paid someone, dodged that bullet.
I’m so excited to try this! I’ve been looking for some way to fix my leather chair that a well meaning friend tore a pretty significant hole in helping me move last year. I’m a single mom so I tend to diy all my stuff but this one was stumping me so it’s just had a blanket thrown over it lol. I can’t wait to fix it! Thank you so much for a fix that looks like I can do easily!
Tremendous! worked like a charm. THANKS!
This was great. I needed feedback for cat scratches on multiple areas of my large sectional sofa. Thank you very much.
OUTSTANDING video. Thank you!
Thank You very much, this is an awesome instructional video. The guys here watching the video were very impressed with your technical detail and know how!! 10/10
Great video....very informative. to the point. finished look was great too.
Excellent creativity and believe many will come up ideas based on this
Super job! Super Glue is great and nice and brittle too
Good technique. Thank you.
Amazing tutorial! Thanks for sharing!
That’s great! Love your tutorial too!!!! 🎚🙏🏼❤️
best ever explanation.
Wow that's pretty good!!
Thanks for the great informative video. You just saved me hundreds
wow..amazing work lady!
This is pretty awesome. Seriously. I appreciate this, it looked like it was magic or something. I thought there was no going back once leather tore.
"We need a tear. (Cuts)" ARE YOU INSANE. AHHHHHHHH
omg haha I lost my shit too
msrdo20 my heart :)
She could have made the tear in an inconspicuous area! duuuuuh!
Omg for real, I was screaming!
I actually screamed out loud noooooooo
Excellent Video on the car repair for leather
Excellent video. Thank you.
Awesome, I'm going to try this!
As soon as you looked at the camera and cut the leather.... I instantly feel IN LOVE.....
She is so attractive
Excellent video. Thanks.
Looks superb.
Was a bit freaked out by that initial cut, haha (maybe the shock value is part of the point?) but in any case, thanks for the very clear explanations and tips. Came across this video when this quarantine gave me too much time to look at our leather couch, whose tears my roommate had covered with duct tape. I found the same glue at a local Ace and so far have at least got all the tears patched with denim scraps. Still need to do the filling and coloring steps as seen in your other video, but at least it definitely already looks much better than the duct tape "fix". Thanks.
Brilliant - thanks so much for sharing. My son has more of a hole in his couch and I'm looking to find ways to repair it. Think I need a patch of some kind.
Thank you so very much. Greatly appreciated.
Wonderful , very creative💪⚡
Very clever. Thankyou!
Great job. Thanks
Beautiful!
Great vídeo thank you!
Excellent video
Nice job. Thank you.
This is already so informative and helpful! Currently fixing a leather couch and I was wondering if I could use E600 as I already have it instead of the vinyl glue
really a nice job
good stuff!
WOW! Solved my problem 1-2-3.
good job lady
Thank you so much for this video!! Very informative. I'm going to do this in the weekend. Wish me luck!
A very informative video!

Awesome video!! Thanks for sharing, I'm going to take on a small tear in the center console of our car...hope it works for me!!
That's quite amazing never thought you could fix that now I will do same on my classic car as it has a tear in it. Thank you so much. X.

Thank you, I will do, if I get stuck. I'm from UK Oswestry www.shimro.co.uk my website. I only use it to share where I grew up in wales and presently live now, it's not a business site.
Good video keep up the good work
Keep up tearing and repairing :DDD
Chingy Brejin
I will be doing this!
That’s a nice sofa!!!!!
awesome :) came out great
great vid awesome info
wow.. thats a great vid.. thanks for sharing your experties. how about a video showing how to repair 3 seater recliner sofa foam, my sofa has one of the side gone flat and has no access to the foam as all stitched up... no zip etc
I love this! I know yow cut your couch to show us how to repair cuts, it was shocking and hilarious! I smiled through the entire video. Thumbs up!
This was a really really great video perfect 👌
I`m going to go and cut my leather sofa right now and try this fix it method.
Lol
amazing fixed my driver seat in my caddy awesome video 👍👍👍👍
Muito grato pela partilha, parabéns pelo vídeo.
E você é muito linda 😍.
That was great! My son brought home a new black and white leather couch this evening and had to wrestle it up two flights of stairs to his apartment. He ended up with two very small tears in the black leather (on the back side) along with some scratches. What's best to use to cover up the scratches? Thanks.
Looks easy enough
this makes me wonder, how many holes that sofa has
good stuff! thanks
Wow! This lady is a badass
I know this is old but I'm hoping you still receive my question.....I have a l-shaped couch and the stitching is coming undone where people sit the most and need to repair it asap...I've seen that need to use a curved needle but I want it to look like it did before it came undone, the stiches underneath if that makes sense. Have any suggestions? Also on top where the dogs are deciding to jump off it looks like the leather is starting to peel in places, is there a way to fix that? Thank you hopefully I hear back from you.
Great vid.. It will be shared..
Thank you very much!!
Great job 👍
Woa What! I can't believe you just cut your lounge and fixed it.. good job thanks :)
Will that work on leather auto upholstery too?
My couch cushions are not removable and I have a small section along the seam that is missing tiny patches of leather, but the under fabric is exposed and in tact. Would you recommend i follow your instructions as mentioned to another person below ("this can be better concealed by cutting through the mesh, subpatching, and gluing everything down before filling any lines or tears. If the tear is ragged, and the vinyl is separated from the mesh, trim those areas off completely (or glue each one down) before filling the tear with a compound."). Dp you have a video on this method? Thanks :)
I have a red leather chair. How do I match up to blend my leather after sanding?
I’m hoping you can help me out with a leather chair that has damage from cat nail holes? Please and thank you!
hi there! would you recommend the sandpaper technique on lambskin leather? thanks
If my vinyl is torn but not all the way through, do I cut it to stick patch in?
very good thank you
This is really cool. Thank you for sharing this. I will let my landlord know about your product, so his couches can look renewed. He's just about given up on them.
Thank you so much for this!
Very good
