Fiebing's Leather Deglazer (4 Fl Oz, Clear) - Leathercraft Preparer for Paint, Adhesion, Dye - Will Not Impair Leather Flexibility - Clean Wax, Finish, Grease on Boots, Shoes, Jacket, Purse, Furniture

Excellent product, works great

Works well

Used this to strip a 25+ year old leather sofa. I only bought one bottle because I honestly though there would be very little glaze left on the sofa, after two and a half decades of kids and small dogs scrabbling to climb up. Boy was I surprised. I could easily have used two or three bottles. BTW, I used clean microfiber clothes, so I wouldn't leave lint behind. You can buy packs of about 25 via amazon for well under $20, and they are ideal for this project.WARNING: This stuff smells so awful, you will be scrambling to open windows, doors, even considering punching holes in walls to catch your breath. I honestly worried we might lose a bird or a cat to the odor. Think of the foulest chemical odor you can possibly imagine. This is unimaginably worse. Use rubber gloves with this stuff. If it smells this bad and strips leather this well, heaven only knows what it will do to your skin, which is, basically, untanned leather itself.However, that said, it did a fabulous job stripping the sofa and prepping it for the dye job to come. I now have a sofa that looks brand spank new, so new that my neighbor has booked my for next spring, when we can use the deglazed OUTDOORS and do hers as well.I will put before and after photos over on the Fiebings dye review I do next. Just click my ID if you want to see the other review.

Did the job. Leather dyed evenly and dark

The product is standard and with light application removes wax and dirt from leather belts, bags and shoes so they can have their coloring dye renewd. With heavier application, old dye color can be removed and new color can be applied. Use Resolene to seal and finish treament. Four stars because order was not sufficiently wrapped and bottle broke. Email note to vendor got replacement bottle sent in short order, no questions asked. Good service recovery.

Good

I used this to prep a coat for dyeing. It worked like it should with no problems. It does smell so a little fresh air is good.

I dyed a saddle and this worked great to get the finish off so the saddle would take the dye.
