Angelus Leather Dye Light Blue 3oz
Angelus Leather Dye Light Blue 3oz is a special type of paint for dyeing leather. This paint is alcohol-based, and the dyeing process is slightly different from that of our regular Angelus leather paint. With this dye, you do not apply a layer on top of the leather product, but instead, the dye penetrates deep into the leather fibres. This gives the leather a permanent colour that cannot be washed off or damaged.
Applying Angelus Leather Dye Light Blue 3oz
Although applying Angelus Leather Dye Light Blue 3oz for smooth leather works excellently, there are also other materials you can dye, such as wood and stone. Especially for furniture, this is a practical solution if, for example, you want to paint a leather sofa and wooden table the same colour. When you buy the dye, you also receive a handy cotton ball. This allows you to easily apply the dye to the product, however, using a brush is handy if you are dealing with hard-to-reach areas. Make sure not to use too much dye at once, as this can cause colour differences across the surface.
Note: Penetrating paint is excellent for dyeing a light colour in a darker shade, but you should not use dye to lighten a darker colour! For permanent dyeing of suede, we have special Angelus suede dye in our range. You can order these inexpensively in various beautiful colours!Delivery

You have questions? We have answers.
-
Q. For how long does the paint need to dry?
A. We recommend letting each thin coat dry for 10-25 minutes; the final coat should be left to dry for 24 hours before applying finishers.
-
Q. How can I reduce the glossiness of the paint?
A. The Angelus Duller was developed to specifically reduce glossiness in leather paint. Before painting, it is both easy and quick to mix the Duller with your leather paint to get a more matt finish.
-
Q. How much paint should I use?
A. This depends on the size, type, and intended use of the item you are going to paint. A pair of shoes such as trainers can be painted with three thin coats using one 29.5 ml jar.
-
Q. Is applying a white coat of paint necessary before doing anything else?
A. Even though Angelus Leather Paint has great opacity, lightening dark-coloured leather can be tricky. We thus recommend applying a coat of white leather paint first, to ensure the best colour quality.
-
Q. Should I apply the leather paint in several coats?
A. Yes, always apply the paint in several layers using thin coats. An excessively thick coat of paint will not remain elastic, resulting in cracks and tears.
