Will this product darken he leather at all? I want to use it on a light leather product and do not want it darkening or residues.

I have only used it on medium and dark leathers (table insert and couch) and have been happy with it. It does go on wet(looks dark) but dries clear/back to normal color.Its a very good product - I have search for others and have not been as happy with anything!

Hasn't darkened anything we have used it on. You could try it first in an out-of-the-way corner.

I have a light camel leather interior in my Rover. I have experienced no problem at all. Just follow the usage directions and all will be well.

I am using it on white aneline leather. It's working well with no discoloration problems.

It depends on what you are trying to achieve. If you are simply trying to keep your leather conditioned, this product would likely work extremely well, however, I would try a small amount on a small section on the bottom of your bag and wait a day to ensure it gives you the results you are hoping for with your bag. If your handbag is older and has developed a dark patina that you which to lighten, try unscented hypo-allergenic baby wipes which will somewhat lighten the darkened patina of your handbag. Do NOT use baby wipes if you purse is still new and light in color. Always try a small area regardless of what product you use. Otherwise, I use this leather cleaner and conditioner on all of my high-end genuine leather handbags but they are not LV.

I would do a very small test area on the fabric such as a seam allowance that doesn't show, and I would watch it very carefully and rinse thoroughly. It does have some bleaching properties so be careful. You might want to use a Q-tip to apply. I would not use it on leather because I think it would take off any finish or tanning agents on the leather.

Yes. If the leather is shiny and textured it will be perfect, think croc print or similar. If the leather is suede then this will darken the suede a bit.

I can't say for sure it will make the texture like new? I can say it will make the leather soft again. If the leather has faded at all it will darken it and be soft and waterproof.

There is no list of ingredients on package. I had no problems with using the product on leather boots and leather upholstery. I, myself, had no qualms in using it on anything leather. Any nature leather will receive a darkening to it. Any processed leather will have no darkening, unless scratches and breaks in the leather are present.

I used the product on, what was very soft good condition leather and the product caused the leather to become much harder. It will seep into and penetrate the cracks in the leather but not repair it in any fashion. If all you want to do is "dye" the cracks in the leather this will work.

I use it on $1000 Luchese boots with no problem. On my older worn boots, it does temporarily darken them a little (a day to weeks, depending on the condition), but so far they have come back beautifully. I'd try a little on a cuff or something before committing the whole jacket. And like I said in the review it takes VERY little of this stuff (like a spray or two on a shammy. If you spray it directly on the leather, you've already used too much), followed by gentle buffing.

I can't honestly answer your question. I am disappointed because the seller get off the hook when they say ...try it on a small area. The product dont seem to put a shine or gloss on the leather.

I have used it on all of my fabric shoes. Suede, cloth, brushed leather etc. I have done really light coats and very heavy coats. It does darken them while they are wet, but as they dry they seem to be revert back to very close to their original color.

My leather seats are a light grey and they did not darken after I used the product. I found it to just clean them up and that made them brighter.

If it's natural leather and really dried out, it may look a little darker after finishing, but this is not real oily. My wife uses it on Coach purses and it doesn't change the appearance, just restores it to the original finish. We highly recommend it and use it all the time. Good luck with your tack!

Yup that's pretty much it. Although I would advise you spray onto the towel you're using instead of the car seat as it's less messy and you don't have the potential of sitting on a glob of product you missed later on. Other then that this stuff is great. I use it on all my leather products (belts, wallets, etc) and it cleans and conditions without darkening.Good luck!

It does darken leather when applied. Does from dry & pale to darker gleaming. It has no stain, just the leather soaking up the moisturizers darkens things up. Spot test is all I can reccomend

I used the liquid Obermauf on a 40 year old (non-suede) leather sofa and chair and was very pleased. I use it on boots, car seats, and other leathers too. I assume it will darken the leather so I'd consider that if just doing the arms.

It does not restore the color, as with anything, once the color is gone it's gone. However, it does darken faded spots as it is a moisturizer, but again fades over time as the leather dries out with age.
