4 1/2 stars all great but such a tiny bottle!!

Had a great experience in terms of ease of ordering, tracking the delivery, delivered in good time etc. The product is great and a perfect match for my 2020 BMW Z4 Ivory leather seats. I would have given 5 starts except for value for money. Considering the cost the size of the bottle is absolutely minuscule. My first thought was “is that all I get?”. Admittedly it’s more than enough for my needs, a slight touch up but really it’s not good value for money at all.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry that you felt it was such a small amount but we do state that this product is only 10ml as it is designed for small touch ups.

Ventured into the leather repair world…

Ventured into the leather repair world for the first time this year.
Vey frustrating because they listed the correct colour cream fora black & cream Mercedes SLK Interior but listed 2 blacks and it didn't state which one.
Tried to ask questions but non one answers!
Eventually bought both, frustrating as I got a bottle of one thing I didn't need!
Then I tried to do the same with a 2017 Audi Q7 with a mid grey leather interior.
They didn't name the leather colour's and simply listed one as grey for Audi's so I bought it!
Total waste of time as it was as different as black & white.
Product works well!
Supplier is rubbish by comparison!

Update after poor response from the supplier on 05-08-25

The excuses provided by the supplier are generic and untrue.
I tried to call many times and left messages, no response.
I texted and got one generic response over 2 weeks later, that is not acceptable.
The web site offered me no tabs for navigation to a specific Audi colour.
The web site only had codes for 2 different kinds of black leather for a Mercedes SLK and no way of identifying which was correct, so I had to buy both, because of my experience of massively poor communication in connection with first purchase for the cream leather.
I understand it costs a lot of money to man telephones, but a 24 hour response time on a message system suits all companies large & small.
Sorry but its simply not good enough!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, we’re sorry to hear about your frustration.

We understand how important it is to get the correct colour match. For the SLK, we can confirm that the black shades are listed with their corresponding interior codes on our website to help guide customers, we're always happy to assist further by running VIN searches to identify the correct code more accurately when needed.

We’re sorry if you had difficulty reaching us by phone. We do experience a high volume of calls and while we aim to respond to all voicemails, emails and messages within 24 hours, we acknowledge that this isn’t always ideal in time sensitive situations. We’ve checked our records and couldn’t find any email or eBay messages from you about your orders, though if a voicemail wasn’t left, we unfortunately wouldn’t have been able to return the call.

Regarding the Audi, we note that you ordered our standard grey, which is a generic shade not matched to specific Audi interiors. We offer a full colour matching service and would be more than happy to help you find a precise match if you’d like to get in touch.

We’re pleased to hear that the product itself worked well for you, and we’d welcome the opportunity to improve your experience in the future.

Absolutely brilliant product, I bought the recolour kit, it had everything in the kit, cleaner, primer, colour and protector. The cloths and sponges were also really good quality.
Followed the instructions and what a great job! I did my belstaff leather jacket and it looks absolutely amazing, so impressed with the product.

3* as it was very easy to order and delivery was very fast.
Unfortunately the product did not work and mould stains still remained on the fabric on the back of my curtains - quite disappointing as it was quite expensive.

Placed order on Saturday 19th July paid…

Placed order on Saturday 19th July paid for tracked 2-3 day delivery I knew it was going to be dispatched over the weekend but on Monday 21st July I received a email saying it had been dispatched and was given the tracking number but here we are on 23rd July and the tracking still hasn’t updated and Royal Mail saying the are expecting it.

I contacted them by email as was told the order was dispatched on Tuesday and that’s why the tracking isn’t updating so why did I receive a email on Monday then saying it was dispatched

Unfortunately if I don’t receive this order by Saturday 26th July then I will have no other option but to report it to my bank as fraud

Update,

I received the tracking number on Monday at 08:33 the tracking didn’t update until Wednesday and when it did it read item received at Preston mail centre seems funny how I complain then all of a sudden my order gets received at Preston mail centre stop using excuses when it’s your incompetence that meant the order is now not going to be here until Friday if the order was dispatched on Monday it should have been here latest by Thursday

Your order was placed on Saturday 19th at 14.50 which mean that your item was dispatched on Monday 21st. The service you paid for is the tracked 2-3 working days. Due to the changes that Royal Mail have made they are now only delivering every other day which unfortunately means items are taking longer to receive which we understand is very frustrating but is in no way a reflection of our services or products. Based on this I would expect your item to be with you by 28th at the latest. Please don't hesitate to contact us at sales@thescratchdoctor.co.uk if you have any other questions.

Soft beige

Initial enquiry was dealt with promptly, pictures were sent so advice could be given as to which products would best suit my needs, after placing my order I was advised of tracking information and order was delivered the following day. After following the application instructions a near on perfect colour match was achieved with a very good finish. All in all a positive experience and would highly recommend the scratch doctor, would definitely use them again. 5 stars fully deserved

How is grey light yellow!!NEVER AGAIN!!

I requested Lotus Yellow colorant for my BMW- whilst it was grey I followed the instructions and kept applying repeted quotes and have ended up with grey front seats not matching the interior. After repeated attempts to try and solve the problem- which I can`t as I am not a professional and could strip it all off -Scrath Doctor are in denial and think grey is light yellow. NEVER AGAIN !

We're sorry you've had a negative experience with our products.

At the time, we acknowledged the issue you were experiencing and made every effort to help resolve it. We offered to work with you to create a more suitable custom colour and send this to you free of charge. Unfortunately, you declined this offer and chose not to proceed with any of the solutions we provided.

Our team remained open and responsive throughout and we genuinely wanted to help achieve a better result.

If you'd like to revisit any of the support we previously extended, our team is still happy to help.

Flawless repair to worn leather

Very quick delivery time on leather repair item, proves that you dont need amazon just a company that gets the job done.
Product its self was 100%, the colour match and application was great. Mercedes Benz Bengal red should of been a tough job.... but after some buffing the repair was flawless. Highly recommend for car Interiors .

Wrong colour

I bought a small pot of BMW Dakota ivory white for my BMW Z4 M40i which has Dakota ivory white seats but the colour is too dark and too beige rather than white.

Given a new lease of life

This is the first time I have used the Scratch Doctor products. I didn’t believe I would find a product that would bring back the colour to my leather sofa. I used the cleaning product first then the colour match cream. I didn’t think anything would bring it back to looking as good as it does now.
