Can you repair bonded leather couch cushions?

I have 4 year old leather couch and the bonded leather is flaking off the cushions. Can someone repair without recovering. Thanks!

You can't really repair it.
Here is probably the best and easiest way to fix it up so it at least looks nice again:

Painting an Outdoor Umbrella

D

dbruno on May 15, 2016

Hi - we purchased a large, red, rectangular umbrella just last year, which is now really faded. I would like to know if it is possible to paint this, and get it back to its original, really nice red color. We believe it is your typical canvas/cotton/polyester blend typically found in home-improvement-store types of umbrellas (but it's just a guess). I would like to hear suggestions and advice as to how to do this, what kind of paint to use, and if it's available in spray cans (I don't own a sprayer). Thanks for the help - Dave

Reviving an old Outdoor Farm canvas

B

biketrax on Aug 24, 2016

I have an old Large piece of Farm equipment canvas. About 10' by 20' feet. on the thick side. It has these large seams that are falling apart. I wish to cut the canvas into smaller sections. However it is old and frail. IT did have an oil finish when I first acquired it, that tended to make it a bit more tough and sturdy. SO basically I am asking what can I treat this old tired canvas with to extend its life? It tends to rip easily if I pull hard enough in one direction, IT use to stand up to much more rigorous conditions. Some wax or oil treatment of sorts. thanks
