Leather is a durable material used in furniture and accessories. Normal wear and tear typically results in cracks and discoloration in the leather. Leather repair kits, which contain materials and tools for repairing leather, can be purchased to tackle cracked and splitting leather surfaces - this process involves cleaning the leather, applying filler and colorant to it, and treating it with a leather conditioner. Household items like vinegar and oil can be used to repair small scratches on your favorite leather goods, while glue and sub-patches can be used to fix small tears in your leather furniture. While seeking professional help is always an option as a last resort, it is worth attempting a DIY restoration first. | Leather is a durable material used in furniture and accessories.
