Fiebing's Pro Dye Leather Dye (4 Fl Oz) - Alcohol-Based, Penetrating, Permanent Dye for Shoes, Belts, Furniture - Vivid Color, Superior Color Fastness

My friend's new mahogany guitar has a wonderfully mellow tone, but while the guitar top has a beautiful deep mahogany finish, its light brown fretboard wasn't the best color match. I bought this for my friend, hoping it could improve things. It did. After using this, the fretboard looks exactly like ebony. Not black - but a very, very dark brown - the perfect match for the guitar top. This is the perfect product for changing fretboard color.

Exactly what i was looking for turned my brown boots Black

Excellent coverage and color. Easy to apply.

I did research on Google before buying this dye. I decided to use the oil-based version of this dye because it looked like it produced better results than the alcohol based. I was right. My boots turned out beautiful. You can hardly tell the difference between the black leather that you buy in the store or these dyed boots. I was trying to keep the cost down on this project, so I stripped my boots with alcohol first before I started the dye process. NOTE: The seller of this dye does not provide a way to apply the dye. So I went to Hobby Lobby and bought a small package of wool daubers for $1.50. I took my boots outside, put newspaper down, and with my gloves on and a wool dauber, applied the dye to one boot and then the other. I put three coats of dye on each boot. I let boots dry overnight and put one more coat of dye on the next day. I let the boots dry overnight again and then I put mink oil on to seal in the dye and make them waterproof. This is a process that cannot be rushed. I still have about half a bottle of dye left.

It's good stuff, but, I ordered this "Pro" dye rather than the regular Fiebings Mahogany that I had ordered the first time because I ran out. The "Pro" is much browner than the regular mahogany which has more red undertones. So depending on what color you're looking for be advised. Otherwise I would have given it five stars.

After a couple of months of use the dye is holding strong, very good item.

I have a pair of really nice 1000 Mile Boots that I love but they were very red. I felt like Dorothy when I wore them. They are made of Horween Chromexcel leather and I wasn’t sure it could be dyed as the leather is said to be so saturated already. After a careful surface prep to remove any sealant this dye had no trouble soaking into the leather leaving a very deep rich color. I finished up with acrylic sealer and the boots look fantastic! I couldn’t be more pleased.

I had an expensive purse that I got a water stain on. I decided to dye it a darker color, because the stain was so bad I couldn't use it as it was. I was really nervous, and wondered if I would ruin it for good. I did buy some cotton daubers to use to apply it. I was amazed at how even this went on and it dries so fast. I am so happy with how this turned out and I think this purse is beautiful again and I can use it again! And I really like this color better than the original. This is a great dye and you will not be sorry you bought it!A tip: I also bought the deglazer from Fiebings and used it on the purse before applying the dye.
