Hi Roger,

We recently received some great hand me down furniture pieces that are in need of a little TLC. They are aniline leather with a shiny, waxy look?

I took a look on the forum, but there is so so much information, I was hoping you would be able to advise which kit I need if I sent you some pictures? Please advise if there is a thread you know of that would give me the same information (or if I should have posted in the forum instead) - it's just hard to tell if I'm matching the right info with our problem.

I've attached photos of the three couches (labelled accordingly) so you can see the difference in wear:
The chair is in the best condition of the 3, the seat and the back are smooth and waxy looking/feeling
The loveseat has a fair bit of wear, but the seats are looking pretty wrinkly (loose?), and a little dull
The long sofa is the worst, the leftmost cushion is extremely dull, loose, and sort of rough/fuzzy feeling
There are no odour problems, and only minor/small marks - I am mostly worried about how dull some cushions are getting.

Do these problems come from a wax pull up effect loss? Overstretching? Top coat problems?
Dullness
Loose feeling/oversoft leather
Roughness
Thank you so much in advance, I look forward to your response and to getting these couches looking great again! Please also let me know if you need any more information or photos to ID the problem(s).

Sincerely
Kerriann
