Can you change black leather to Brown?

Black cannot be dyed to another color (but you could certainly paint it). To start, you will want to use a leather preparer/deglazer. However, if you are working with an already finished leather, you will need to deglaze to remove the finish so the dye can soak into the leather itself.
