Hello to all of you,

I would like to contact you because I own a Stress Less chair that suffers from a kind of film. As you can see on the picture the surface of the leather peels. How can I stop the phenomenon?

Thank you for your help and advice

Have a good day

    Hello,

    It is the original colouring that no longer holds, it is necessary to strip to remove all the recolouring agent that does not hold, sand to open the leather, recolour and varnish. You will find a new leather because the grain of the leather is not touched.

    Hello,

    It is the layer of clear varnish that is peeling, not really the leather.
    To solve this problem you will need to sand it lightly, then degrease/clean it with acetone. These 2 operations permanently remove the original varnish. Unfortunately, they will also fade your leather to a greater or lesser extent. 
    You will then need to recolour and protect your sofa to make everything look like new again.
    We invite you to order our Leather Sofa Renovation Kit, which contains all the products required.
    Do not hesitate to call us on Monday if you would like further information.
