    Default Pigmented (Mono-Tone) - Sectional needs repair and more

    I have the below sectional. It has cracks and I hate the color now. I would like to repair the cracks and change the color to a dark brown.

    What would I need to do and could I get the price for it all?

    >>> What would I need to do?

    These are the sequence of processes that are required and we can discuss more in details how best to do it.
    Application of coloring is best done by airbrushing with continuous clean air pressure between 80 and 100psi.

    1. Degreasing of penetrated body oil, grease and sweat.
    Use- Degreaser-2.2 > Rinse-3.0 > Hydrator-3.3.

    2. Leather Rejuvenating for Softness and Strength.
    Use- Hydrator-3.3 > Fatliquor-5.0

    3. Dry Preparation
    Use 1000grit to 2000grit sanding to smoothen crack texture.

    4. Structural Strengthening of Cracks.
    Use- Impregnator-26

    5. Optional Filling of Cracks
    Use - Stucco-90 + Bond-3D + Coloring with in between sanding

    6. Sealing, Smoothening and Adhesion Promotion
    Use - Adhesor-73

    7. Color Matching
    System products – Black with Maroon produce dark brown.
    Use - Micro-54 + Thickener-48

    8. Top Coat
    Choice of satin or matte to match
    Use - MicroTop-54

    9. Protector
    Non-stick, rub-resistant, buttery-feel leather scented protector
    Use - Protector-B+

    Leather Doctor Kit Sa7.cl – Semi-Aniline Leather Color Refinishing Kit
    Leather Doctor® Kit Sa7.cl, micro-pigmented leather color refinishing kit is design for a holistic restoration approach to not only the finishes but also rejuvenating the leather for suppleness. Most of these repairs may range from missing finishes to abrading damages into the leather structure. Some expose areas may be contaminated with foreign soiling that includes conditioners, protectors, body oil, grease and sweat or alkaline overexposure from cleaners. A comprehensive repair for a long-term lasting solution will require a holistic approach to deal with both the exposed structure and surface finishes. The practical and functional softness and strength of the leather depends on the health of the structure with average thickness between 0.9 to 1.2mm from stiffness and cracking. The aesthetic aspect of the leather finishes averages 0.02mm (or 20 micron) in thickness for practical compressing and flexing from cracking. A leather-safe restoration system begins by stripping with Stripper-2.3 and rinsing with Rinse-3.0. Degreasing with Degreaser-2.2 follows with Acidifier-2.0. The suffix numbers of these four products denotes it pH value for recharging the protein fiber ionic positive besides the act of decontamination. The leather integrity is revitalizes once the ionic attraction between the positive protein fiber and its negative leather constituents like the tanning agent and fatliquor (fat, oil and water) is initiated. Leather rejuvenating system for softness and strength is accomplishes with Hydrator-3.3 follows with Fatliquor-5.0. Surface uneven absorption is seals with Adhesor-73 to reduce the need for color over-coating thus increase its flexibility and stretchability from premature cracking. Protector-B+ imparts a non-stick rub-resistant surface with a buttery feel, reduces noises that translate into less friction wear. As the leather surface is well lubricated it reduces compression when comes to heavy body contact thus reduces compressed creases and wrinkles.
