About That Leather Guy - Color Glo

That Leather Guy - Color Glo operates out of Minneapolis, Minnesota, bringing a focused specialty in furniture reupholstery to the Twin Cities metro. With a perfect 5.0 rating, this shop has earned strong praise from every customer who's walked through the door. Minneapolis homeowners deal with harsh winters that can dry out and crack leather furniture faster than in milder climates, making local leather care experts especially valuable. It's a small but highly regarded operation that knows its craft.

Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

The shop's core work centers on furniture reupholstery, with a particular strength in leather restoration and color matching through the Color Glo system. Color Glo is a professional-grade process that cleans, repairs, and re-dyes leather and vinyl surfaces to restore their original look without full replacement. Clients bring in cracked leather sofas, faded armchairs, and worn dining chairs to get them looking new again. The process is far more cost-effective than buying replacement furniture, especially for high-quality pieces worth preserving.

Service Area

That Leather Guy - Color Glo serves the greater Minneapolis area, including surrounding Hennepin County communities. Clients from nearby suburbs like Eden Prairie, Edina, and Bloomington regularly make the trip for their specialized leather work. The shop's location makes it convenient for much of the southwest metro.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Color Glo fix deep cracks in leather furniture, or just surface scuffs?
Color Glo technicians are trained to handle both surface scuffs and deeper cracks in leather. Deep cracks require a filler and bonding step before color is re-applied, so the result depends on the severity of the damage and the leather's overall condition.
How long does a leather color restoration typically take?
Most leather color restoration jobs take one to three days depending on the size of the piece and the extent of the damage. Larger sectionals or pieces with significant wear may take a bit longer to complete properly.
Is it cheaper to restore my leather sofa or just buy a new one?
In most cases, professional leather restoration costs significantly less than replacing quality furniture. If the frame and cushioning are still solid, restoring the leather surface is almost always the smarter financial choice.
Can you match the original color of my leather furniture exactly?
Color matching is a core part of the Color Glo process, and technicians work to get as close to the original shade as possible. On older pieces, some variation can occur since leather colors fade unevenly over time, but the results are typically very accurate.
Does the restoration hold up well over time, or will the color fade again quickly?
Professional color restoration, when properly applied and sealed, holds up well under normal everyday use. Following the technician's aftercare recommendations, like using a leather conditioner periodically, will extend the life of the treatment significantly.
Do you work on vinyl furniture, or only genuine leather?
The Color Glo system works on both genuine leather and vinyl surfaces, making it useful for a wide range of furniture types. If you're not sure what material your furniture is, the technician can help identify it during the initial assessment.
