Fabricoat

Our company started life in a garage over 20 years ago via our parent company, Furniture Clinic. Building upon years of experience in furniture restoration and a passion for sustainability, we’ve gone from strength to strength and our business has grown exponentially.

Why it worked

The video offers a cost-effective DIY solution to a common problem (outdated or worn-out furniture), appealing to viewers looking for budget-friendly home improvement ideas. The 'before and after' reveal, even with the caveat of running out of paint, provides a satisfying transformation.

Summary

The creator demonstrates how to repaint a couch using "Fabricoat" fabric paint to achieve a dark brown color, saving the cost of buying a new one. Despite running out of paint and needing a second coat, the creator is satisfied with the final result.
