Depends on how deep u need. I did 3 test spot where u can't see it. 1st spot just the blk u received, 2nd mix sm sample in the blk, 3rd mix more or a different color let all 3 samples dry for a couple of hours then wax. I just used toothpicks to do testing.

if it is a dark "jet black" no, you don't need to mix, if it is slightly charcoal however, just a slight touch of white is needed to help match the colour

I did, because mine was a coffee color but you just mix it till it matches. I also applied it with a Qtip because the thing they provide didn't work to well.

Depends how deep of black u need. I'd do sm. Test let it dry & wax it to see if that blends what u need. I needed gray leather for my excelad, leather seat, I had to mix to match mine, its been 2 yrs now, and it still looks good.

I had a dark Grey Leather seats in my Prius with a lot of scrapes that were white. I thought it would be Black with a little White. I used one Black cup and a about ⅔ White cup. It did an excellent color match and the scratches disappeared. I did this before I traded it for a new 2013 car. It made the seats look almost new again. I put two coats on it.

Can be used on any color. Actually, I'd hesitate on black as it's difficult to remove the haze after it dries. Go sparingly and stay away from black molding!

If the area is small and you can get the color to match exactly, it should work. I was successful using the black on small scuff marks on two pair of shoes. On other colors, if you can't get it to match exactly it will show as a stain. If the area is large, you won't have enough.

I was concerned about exactly the same thing. Our furniture is in our living room and i didn't want to mess it up! I contacted Chamberlain Customer Service and this was their reply: "Yes, Furniture Treatment No. 5 is fine for use on color-dyed leather. You shouldn't have a problem as long as the color-dyed leather has been properly sealed. With lighter colored leathers, especially highly absorbent soft leathers, No. 5 can darken them. We don't recommend using Furniture Treatment No. 5 on extremely soft-type leathers or suede." Still I was a bit nervous because my couches are soft leather, but a neutral tan color. It brought out the rich color of the leather which I was really pleased with! I would try it in a inconspicuous spot like all these people tell us! Good Luck!

did not noticibly darken any of the boots we used it on. One pair was a camel tan similar to original timberland boot color. After it dried couldn't tell the difference. Yes would work be sure to use a couple coats

Depends on how many coats you do. I did 3 and it looks black. But the 1st 2 coats were very dark brown.

Hi, I didn't apply leather finish after dying my shoes. I watched a YouTube video and a lady dyed some rather worn shoes with a gorgeous orangish/rust dye. They turned out fabulously, and she dyed SUEDE shoes! That is what I did, only black and newish shoes. She said hers were suede, and it worked great. The package says not to dye suede, but I did anyway. I am not sorry! The color is fabulous and I just brushed them with a soft brush after they were dry. I am not doing anything else to them - mostly because they look good and they are suede. I would suggest reading the package. I don't remember afterwards applications. Sorry!

The black works very good. The color not so good so I only use the black. I think it is a good deal if you don't use color.

I only tried it on suede boots, but the can says it does plain leather as well.

No, you mix the adhesive with the color repair. Then apply on leather, then apply grain paper and let it set (dry) for 24 hours before removing the paper.

I don't know the answer to that but the brown is very dark so unless u specifically need black the brown should be sufficient.

Yes you can use this on leather very easily. Remember to avoid from excessive pressure for branding the leather. That prevents from burning a hole into the leather you want to use. Good luck and have fun.

I didn't notice any difference, but I have only used it on darker leather. Hope this helps

I had no problem switching to black. It's a dispenser so I do not see why not. :-)

It actually depends on the leather/dye. I have used it on my Coach Legacy and Madison bags without any change. I used it on my D&B; Florentine and LV bags on untreated vachetta and it did darken the leather. I hope this helps.

Only use one or the other...if you try to add oil on top of the Sno-Seal wax, it won't absorb into the leather. If your manufacturer recommends boot oil and you have used it and like it, stick with that, otherwise, pick up some Sno-Seal, I love it.

I have not had any problem with darkening and I've used this for years. I have a pair of boots that I've worn since the mid-1980s. This is all I've ever used on them, so I believe even over long use there is no cause for concern. I am not familiar with the harness you're using, but since it is dyed I would suggest you follow the caution to try it on an inconspicuous area of the leather first to determine what effect it may have.
