Aaron Reyes –
If you pick up a used Aeron and want to restore it to a presentable condition this paint is essential. Covered all the cosmetic damage on mine and the chair looks great.
Carla Morris –
Applied to the plastic arm casing where it had rubbed against a desk edge. Two coats and the scuff is hidden. Plastic surface took the paint well.
T. Lawton –
Bought this six months ago, used it once, and just used it again on a new scuff. Still sprays perfectly and color is still accurate. Good to know it keeps well.
Priya Walsh –
Graphite on Aerons is a specific tone that generic black paint misses. This product gets it right. Much better than anything I found at a hardware store.
Kenji Bloom –
My chair had seven or eight small scuffs from a couple years of desk chair life. Went over each one with light coats. All covered. Chair looks clean.
Oliver Watts –
The product page has clear step by step instructions. Followed them exactly and got a good result. The tip about distance and light coats is especially important.
Jason Reyes –
I tried a generic black touch-up paint before finding this and the color was off. This one is formulated for the Aeron graphite finish specifically and the match is much better.
M. Holloway –
Applied two coats with an hour between them and the finish looked consistent and even. No patchiness or uneven sheen. Dried to a clean result overnight.
Marco Solis –
Paint has not peeled or flaked after four months of daily use. Applied properly and let it cure and it holds well.
Gwen Tran –
Giving my old Aeron to a family member and wanted it to look good. This paint touched up a few scuffs and the chair now looks really presentable. Great little product.
Faye Sato –
Clean area, shake can well, light coats, dry overnight. The whole process is simple and the result is a clean looking repair. Nothing complicated about it.
Diane Kim –
I expected a visible repair line but the paint blended in surprisingly well. From normal viewing distance you cannot tell the chip was ever there. Impressed.
Amy Reeves –
Had my home repainted and the Aeron got some paint chips from being moved. This touch-up paint fixed all of them in about 20 minutes. Chair looks spotless again.
Henry Bloom –
Moved offices and the Aeron picked up a few chips in transit. This paint took care of all of them. Chair looks as good as before the move.
P. Holloway –
Side by side comparison of the paint and the untouched chair finish was very close. After applying and drying the repaired areas are essentially invisible.
aeronforlife –
If you have an Aeron and keep it long term you will eventually need this. Scratches happen. This paint is the right solution. Color matched, easy to apply, good finish.
aeroncare_pro –
Nothing else I found was matched to this chair specifically. This paint is and it shows. Color is right, finish is right, and the application is easy. Highly recommend.
Sandra Yuen –
The plastic pieces on my Aeron arms had surface scuffs. Paint adhered well to the plastic and covered the marks cleanly. Let it cure overnight and it stayed put.
facility_ops –
Our facilities team uses this to maintain the appearance of our Aeron chairs. It covers chips and scuffs well and the chairs stay looking professional. Good value per can.
Carl Reeves –
Followed the advice to protect nearby surfaces. Used some newspaper around the area. No overspray problems and the result was a clean repair. Good instructions.
Clara Ng –
A portion of my chair base was faded from sun exposure. Two coats of this paint brought it back in line with the rest of the chair. Very pleased with the outcome.
Monica Walsh –
No experimenting needed. Shook it, sprayed it, dried it. Color matched my graphite Aeron on the first attempt. Very happy with how straightforward this was.
D. Coleman –
In most lighting the repair is invisible. Under very bright direct light there is a barely perceptible sheen difference. Would not bother most people. Perfectly fine for normal office use.
Brian Lau –
12 oz is more than enough to touch up a full chair several times over. I bought one can for my Aeron and have barely made a dent in it after treating five or six spots.
Mike Ferris –
Touched up my Aeron before listing it and the chair sold faster and for more than I expected. The paint made a real difference in appearance.
L. Morales –
Small scuffs on the back frame from being moved around. This paint covered them all in one session. Clean result and color is accurate.
Paul Castillo –
Arrived in 5 days, well sealed, no leaks. Applied it right away and the result was great. Paint covered the chip cleanly and color was accurate.
Priya Tran –
Rushing the drying time will give you a bad result. I waited the full 24 hours before touching the repaired areas and the finish was excellent. Worth the wait.
Helen Grant –
My Aeron had several visible chips. After a touch-up session with this paint the chair looks close to new. Very happy with the transformation.
Phil Oduya –
My Aeron looked tired after years of heavy use. Multiple chips and scuffs around the frame. This paint freshened it up significantly. Chair looks like it belongs in a nice office again.
Roy Chen –
Used it on the back frame, the arm casing, and the seat frame. Covered minor chips on all three surfaces. Consistent result across the whole chair.
Monica Grant –
Bought this as a gift for a friend who had been complaining about scuffs on his Aeron. He was really happy with it. Easy to use and the color was right.
S. Hartley –
The base legs on my Aeron had a few scuffs from rolling against a desk leg. This paint covered them cleanly. Color matched the base finish well.
V. Torres –
Used masking tape around the repair area to keep the spray contained. Made the whole process cleaner and easier. Result was a neat precise repair.
Irene Castillo –
My Aeron is relatively new but got a scuff early on. This paint blended in perfectly even on a newer finish. Very accurate graphite color.
B. Castillo –
I have tried touch-up paints before that looked terrible. This one actually worked. The graphite color is right and the finish dried cleanly. Really impressed.
James Obi –
Had a small drip on my first coat. The tip about wiping with a damp cloth worked perfectly. Removed the drip cleanly and reapplied. Result was smooth and even.
chairfix_weekly –
I document all my Aeron refurbs and the before and after difference with this paint is always dramatic. Chips and scuffs that look bad in photos disappear after treatment.
T. Holloway –
Up very close the repaired spot has a very slight texture variation from the surrounding area. From any normal distance you cannot see it at all. Completely satisfied.
Tanya Wallis –
My Aeron is about eight years old and I was not sure if the paint color would still be accurate. It matched well enough that the repairs are hard to spot.
Stacy Bloom –
Applied carefully and the result is a very clean, consistent finish. The graphite color is accurate and the repair blends in perfectly at normal viewing distance.
Simon Bloom –
My Aeron arrived with a small chip from the delivery process. This paint covered it cleanly. Chair looks exactly as it should now.
N. Reeves –
I kept noticing the scratch every time I sat down. Finally ordered this and fixed it. Takes 15 minutes and the scratch is gone. Should have done it sooner.
Vera Santos –
For $35 you can make your Aeron look significantly better. A can this size will last through multiple touch-ups. Good investment for anyone keeping an Aeron long term.
Irene Bloom –
I clean my chair regularly with a mild cleaner and the touch-up areas have held their color through multiple wipe-downs. Good durability.
Mark Dunn –
Was restoring a used Aeron and asked Nulife what to use for paint chips. Lerry pointed me to this and it was exactly right. Covered all the scuffs cleanly and the chair sold for a good price.
Nadia Ruiz –
Used this can twice over six months on new scuffs. Color was consistent both times and the application went smoothly. Good product to keep on hand.
Faye Hoffman –
Had a bunch of small scuffs and one larger chip from years of office use. This paint touched up all of them. Chair looks presentable and professional again.
Isaac Bloom –
Applied to both the metal base and the plastic arm casing and it covered both well. Color stayed consistent across different surfaces.
Dana Sato –
Had guests coming over and noticed the Aeron had a visible scuff. Fixed it with this paint the evening before. Chair looked presentable and nobody knew.
Ken Walsh –
Scratches and chips are part of owning a chair long term. This paint makes maintaining the appearance of an Aeron simple and affordable.
R. Walsh –
The paint dries to a finish that closely matches the slightly textured surface of the Aeron frame. Not a glossy coat on top of a matte chair. Very natural looking.
Chloe Torres –
Came in 6 days, sealed properly, no leaks. Applied it the same afternoon and the chip on my base is gone. Happy with the whole experience.
Roger Walsh –
Applied this at home and then moved the chair to my office. Several months of daily use and the repaired area looks the same as the day I applied it.
Aaron Moss –
Used this on three chairs and still have plenty left in the can. Good value for a 12oz can. Color match was consistent across all three chairs.
officeops_lisa –
We touch up our office Aerons quarterly. Two cans handle the whole fleet of 12 chairs for about a year. Good product and consistent quality.
W. Castillo –
I was expecting a DIY patchy look. Instead the result looks really clean. The graphite color is accurate and the finish dried evenly. Very pleased.
Cynthia Park –
No trial and error needed. Followed the instructions, got a good result first attempt. Color was accurate and the repair blended in well.
Jenna Park –
Deeper paint chips needed three coats to look right. Thin coats each time and let each one dry fully. Patience pays off. End result was smooth and matched well.
A. Foster –
Light surface scuff on the back frame from a wall. Two thin coats of this paint covered it completely. Color blended in naturally with the rest of the frame.
Barry Ng –
The finish after drying looked clean and consistent. I applied two light coats and waited a full 24 hours between the last coat and sitting in the chair. Perfect result.
Noel Castillo –
The finish after drying is a consistent matte that matches the Aeron frame. No gloss inconsistency. Blends in naturally with the surrounding surface.
Pat Ng –
I tried a hardware store black spray paint once on a different chair and it looked wrong. This is formulated for the Aeron finish and the difference is very clear. Much better match.
Monica Kim –
If you have an Aeron with any scuffs or chips this is exactly what you need. Color is right, application is easy, and the result is a clean looking chair.
resale_rick –
Was listing a used Aeron and wanted to touch up a few spots first. This paint made the chair look significantly better. Sold it for a better price than I expected.
David Park –
I searched for a while for the right graphite paint for my Aeron. Nulife Chairs had exactly what I needed and it was formulated specifically for this chair. Very satisfied.
H. Bergmann –
The color is right but if you look very closely the repaired area has a very slight sheen difference from the surrounding finish. Not noticeable from sitting distance. Good product overall.
W. Bergmann –
From a few feet away the repair is invisible. If you get right up to it there is a very slight texture difference. For a chair used at a desk this is completely acceptable.
Dana Flores –
Most of my scratches were on the aluminum base legs. This paint covered them well despite the base texture. A couple of thin passes and the marks are gone.
Victor Ito –
The chip on my chair frame was driving me crazy. This paint covered it well and the finish looks professional. Glad I found this before trying a generic paint.
Claudia Reyes –
I touch up my Aeron every six months or so as new scuffs appear. This paint keeps it looking like new. Great product for long-term chair ownership.
Rachel Dunn –
Our company upgraded to new Aerons and I was allowed to bring the old one home. It had a few scuffs so I touched it up before setting it up at my home desk. Looks great.
P. Holloway –
Instructions are clear and simple to follow. Cleaned the area, shook the can, sprayed lightly, dried overnight. Scratch is gone.
L. Castillo –
I touched the repaired area too soon the first time and left a fingerprint. Had to reapply. Lesson learned: let it cure for the full 24 hours. After that it’s rock solid and looks perfect.
Kenji Sato –
I held the can up next to my chair before spraying and the color looked right. After applying and drying the match is very accurate. You really can’t tell where the repair is.
Linda Reyes –
We manage a corporate office with about 20 Aerons. This paint is great for keeping the chairs looking sharp without replacing them. One can goes a long way.
W. Tanaka –
The paint looks a bit darker when freshly applied than after drying. Do not panic and think the color is off. Let it dry fully and the tone settles to the correct graphite shade.
C. Wills –
The graphite color is accurate for the classic Aeron model. I compared it carefully before applying and the match is very good. Repaired spots blend in naturally.
Amy Chen –
Make sure you use this in a well ventilated area as the instructions say. Did mine near an open window. Coverage was good and the color matched perfectly.
Diana Torres –
The graphite is not quite black and not quite gray. This paint hits the right tone. Matches the classic Aeron graphite finish accurately.
Oliver Park –
Had a deep scratch on the seat side. Took three coats to build up enough coverage but it worked. Let each coat dry fully before the next one. Looks clean now.
Teresa Lim –
Picked up a used Aeron with some cosmetic damage. This paint fixed the chips and scuffs. Chair now looks like a solid well-maintained piece rather than a beat-up used chair.
L. Ferris –
My Aeron is about 10 years old and I was not sure if the graphite color would still match. It did. The repaired areas blend in well with the rest of the frame.
T.J. Park –
Key is a light touch on the spray. Fast sweeping motion across the repair area gives a nice even coat. Works much better than holding still and pressing.
H. Bloom –
I sell refurbished Aerons occasionally and this is now a standard part of my process. Touch up the cosmetics before listing and the chairs always sell better.
Rosa Mendez –
Applied three very thin coats instead of one or two thick ones. Result was a smooth even finish. Tip: less is more with this type of spray.
Larry Ng –
I keep this alongside my other chair maintenance items. Whenever a new scuff appears I fix it right away. Chair has stayed looking clean for over a year now.
Greg Holt –
My dog had chewed at one of the chair arms and left a big scuff mark. Paint covered it in two coats. Not invisible up close but much better than before.
Angela Solis –
I keep a can on hand for when scuffs happen rather than waiting until I have a chip to fix. Useful item to have for anyone keeping an Aeron long term.
Sandra Obi –
Appreciated that this is USA made. The spray quality is consistent and the graphite color was accurate for my Aeron. No complaints.
Kenji Dunn –
Thirty-five dollars and some patience and my Aeron looks noticeably better. Chips and scratches that were catching my eye every day are gone.
Ian Foster –
Bought a used Aeron that had scuff marks on the base and arms. This paint cleaned up those spots nicely. Chair looks much more presentable now.
B. Morales –
One very thin even coat was enough for my surface scuffs. Did not even need a second coat on most spots. Good coverage from light application.
Nadia Walsh –
Let it sit overnight and the finish dried to a clean matte that matched the surrounding area. No obvious repair lines visible from a normal distance.
Brendan Lim –
Used this in my garage with the door open for ventilation. Good coverage and no fumes in the house. Tip: doing it away from furniture protects against overspray.
Chris Yuen –
I was worried this would be slightly off and would make the repaired spot more obvious. It matched my chair’s graphite finish very well. Happy with the result.
C. Morales –
The spray nozzle gave a consistent fine mist without clogging. Important for getting an even coat on a small repair area. Good quality can overall.
Melissa Grant –
Had a chip on the back frame where it had knocked against a wall. After cleaning and two light coats this paint covered it completely. Chair looks great again.
T.G. –
Used too much on the first pass and got a small drip. Wiped it with a damp cloth as the instructions say and started over with lighter coats. Second attempt was clean and blended well.
Olivia James –
Scratch on the back frame was the first thing people noticed about my chair. This paint covered it in one session. Nobody notices it anymore.
Paul Reeves –
First attempt I did not shake the can long enough and the coverage was uneven. Shook it for a full 30 seconds the second time and the result was much better. Color matched and dried evenly.
Sandra Kim –
Applied lightly and the paint naturally feathered into the surrounding finish without me having to do anything special. Very forgiving product to work with.
aeron_refurb –
I refurbish Aerons and sell them. This paint is essential for covering scuffs on the frame before listing. Color match is very close and it dries to a consistent finish.
Joel Hartley –
Clean surface, shake, spray lightly, dry. The whole process is straightforward and the result looks professional. Good product.
K. Tanaka –
Chair had a few chips on the base legs from years of use. Two light coats and they disappeared. The graphite color is exactly right.
Ray Okonkwo –
Applied it three months ago and just checked the repaired areas. Paint is still intact with no peeling or fading. Good durability.
Derek Moss –
Scratched my Aeron moving it and the graphite scuff was really bugging me. This paint matched the finish perfectly. Shook it well, light coats from about 8 inches, let it dry. You can barely tell it was ever scratched.
