    Thanks for uploading this video! I have a faux leather recliner that's peeling like a skin with a bad sunburn. The chair is still functional and comfortable so I thought it was worthy of repair. I've been doing research and the possibility of repairs looked hopeful until I saw your video. After watching your video, I decided to buy a slip cover which isn't a perfect fit, but good enough. Again, a *BIG THANK YOU* for saving me time and money from doing a DIY repair that was doomed for failure.

I guess you can't compete with real leather.

    thank you for posting this, i know you said it isn’t worth it but the chair i’m fixing was a gift and i certainly don’t like the idea of so much plastic going to a landfill without getting some real use. my wife is also very attached to this chair already ^-^ it certainly will be worth the time to me even if i have to redo it regularly and end up redoing the whole thing w fabric paint later. i didn’t really care how it looked and expected the fix to be ugly (it’s sentimental not a particularly great chair, and i personally believe in self repair and don’t care too much for aesthetic of furniture or dishes, although i’m picky about clothes) so seeing that filler’s final result was a shock, i’m sure she’ll appreciate it looking nicer than expected even if it does end up looking patched! tangent aside my point is that even though you didn’t think it worked out it was really cool to post it and 1) help people who are persistent and 2) help people who would have ended up trying this themselves and been disappointed. your channel in general seems like it will be a gift and i’m definitely gonna check more videos out since i’m trying to get better at this stuff. anyways my point is thank you haha

    Thulas Mash yes it is. If it does not feel like the leather that’s on my 25 year old leather jacket. Not buying it. The wife still doesn’t realize a couch should last for decades ! Not just a couple years. You could buy 7-900 dollar couches every 3 or 4 years. Or buy a real one and be finished with it. You come out better In the long run spending more on the high end stuff for sure . My Grandpa made furniture and his stuff is still around and in good shape and it’s worth re doing. This crap in most places now you just throw it in the garbage after so long. It Makes no sense at all to even try to refurb all this stuff on the market these days. It’s all disposable and people stay in debt with furniture stores returning to buy more. I’m disgusted with it Ooooh it’s old I’m throwing it away and I’m Buying this new stuff that’s going to be trash in a couple years. I don’t see the logic in it. If it’s ugly and a real piece. You’re better off restoring it. I don’t see why it so hard to understand. Just like with dresser drawers and tables. Solid oak can get scratched and banged up. Stain it. They take and throw it out and sell it to buy veneers and sawdust that you can’t sand and restore. And my wife is the worst for that crap. Ugggh.

    Thank you! The greatest joke (on us) is that this is merchandised as "ECO-leather", probably even more so in EU, when it'll disintegrate even without ever been used, often in a matter of months, forcing you to discard the entire item. So much for "green", "protecting the planet" and "environmentally friendly"! Real leather will last almost indefinitely, with proper care, and then if it does wear out, it is completely fully biodegradable, unlike this pathetic excuse for an invention.

    The term "bonded leather" is a lie. To call something bonded leather all there has to be is 5%-10% leather dust mixed in the coating. Fabric lasts longer, vinyl lasts longer, leather lasts longer. Once a bonded chair starts to peel, it will not stop and "repairing" is a ridiculous notion. Repairing a bonded chair is like gluing hair on your head to stop balding. Never fall for the term "bonded leather" or "PU leather"..they are both the same and not REAL leather.

    What would you think about early placement on an area that doesn't get a lot of physical flexing? Asking because a kitten has been climbing on a chair, putting little puncture wounds. Its on the rigid side parts of a gaming chair, that gets limited to no body contact. Physical damage is right now, only seen with close inspection where you can see the tiny claw punctures. We are trying to decide whether to just wait for it to go to shit, or to try to pre-emptively seal the damaged points with something that dries clear.

    Yep wasted $1500+ on a couch and love seat because of it delaminating. I used it for two years, then had kids and put it in my basement covered up for another 5 years. Recliners werent kid friendly at the time so i swapped it out for my other leather couch. Moved the couches to my new house and they were in pristine condition. After just a month of use i guess it got brittle over the years and started peeling and flaking everywhere. It was an endless vaccuuming nightmare. I peeled an entire seat section off and sat on it for another month before i had enough and took it to the dump. I cant believe i got duped into thinking bonded leather would be just fine. Still using my parents old leather couch thats 25 years old and still looks awesome for its age. It needs a little bit of leather dye in a few areas but that should be an easy fix. You get what you pay for and i definitely learned my lesson.

    Luckily my chair was black so I bought 1 yard of black bonded leather, took off the arms and back, staple gunned the new fabric over the other for about $10. As an artist, I'm always getting paint on everything so I didn't want to purchase a brand new chair but I didn't want the black peeling stuff sticking to the back of my legs either. It worked out really well - as long as one doesn't mind not having any stitching showing on the seat. Also I have enough "leather" left over in case it needs it again in another 8 -10 years

I was thinking of repairing this very nice storage box I have that came with faux leather but now I see it would be better to buy leather and have it redone or re-wrapped in actual leather. Will look better, be faster and last way longer.

    Who's watching because their gaming chair is peeling? Never buying a PU leather chair again lol. It's peeling like crazy after 3 years! (akracing chair) Just gonna look for a real leather (or mesh) office chair instead with a similar style shape. EDIT: I bought a mesh style office chair. So much better! Doesn't get hot in the summer too. Sihoo M57

    Yep. DX Racer King Series, it's 5 years old and the peeling started this week, getting worse really fast. Paid $550 in my country for it, which is a lot of money.

    @@matn7743 Amazing seeing your comment - I've had my King series chair about 6 years and the peeling is getting pretty bad. I contacted customer support and they basically just told me good luck The chairs must only be made to last 5 years. Last time I'll be buying one!

    I invested about $ 50 for a task chair and armrest covers. Now chair is fine and i don’t have to pay hundreds to replace it with a leather one.

    I’m curious as to whether just peeling the faux leather off (if the color of the fabric base is acceptable to taste) is there any reason you wouldn’t try that? I have a gray sectional that the headrests are peeling and the material underneath is a nice fabric and gray color. What’s the least labor intensive way to remove the plasticky layer? Love your videos :)

    Great video! Thanks - you talked me into just tossing my fake leather coffee table that is pealing on the corners. Loved that thing but obviously not worth fixing.

    We have ab RV with pleather seats. Is this the same as you are working on? Pleather issues are an RV industry-wide issue nowadays. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    Glad I found this video. I was about to take on a sofa in our RV which 4 out of 4 seats are delaminating. I had it in the back of my mind that just replacing it with another sofa would be easier, provided the sofa rails aren’t structural.

    Alas, this is your fate, and you may have to remove a window or door just to squeeze the furniture out and back in. We used to work for the RV industry. Why they still use this stuff is beyond us. They know better by now. It's been 20 years that this polyurethane crap has been delaminating on the lots...

    We made the BIG mistake of buying a sofa and recliner made out of bonded leather not knowing the peeling and cracking would be the eventual outcome. I tried repairing it with the kit when I noticed the start of the peeling. Just like she showed in the video ~ you fix one area and three more pop up.

    Can you recommend anything which will create a better coating on these chairs ? I'm in a recording studio so these chairs get BEAT up. I'm tired of replacing. Chairs aren't supposed to be disposable !!! I just want a tougher coating. Something durable which is still cool to sit on. >> I mean >> I see you have flex seal, but is that preferred ? Did you try a bunch of stuff and that is the way to go ?
