Allison on Sep 27, 2015Some very good advice here, a little patience and you will get the perfect color. This chair looks like it would be a perfect candidate for painting the upholstery as well. There are so many helpful instructions on Hometalk, YouTube, Pinterest. You could really make this chair yours!Helpful Reply

Starlet on Sep 30, 2015Painting the upholstery! I never heard of that - all these years I had this great old couch but the upholstery was so worn that I was always covering it with Sure Fit. I finally after 30+ years bought a new couch. I'll check uTube.Helpful Reply
