SURFACE PREPARATION
The process of repairing and dyeing leather consists of several important steps, which must be carefully followed in order to achieve a good result.
The surface to be painted must be thoroughly cleaned of dust, dirt and foreign matter, using a professional Leather Ultimate Cleaner.
In the case of heavy soiling and grease stains in the leather, the dirt and grease must first be removed using the Leather Degreaser.
After thorough cleaning and preparation, the leather should be degreased using the Leather Alcohol Cleaner or the Leather Liquid Degreaser.
If your leather is damaged or the paintwork is damaged, you should first remove the loose old paintwork with the Leather Prep or the Leather Solvent Cleaner.
After thorough cleaning and preparation of the leather for painting, apply the Leather Primer with the Leather Cross Linker X 5-10% of the product.
PAINT APPLICATION
Shake paint thoroughly prior to application. For best surface finish it is recommended to apply the paint in thin and even coats by spraying with a paint gun or airbrush.
Pneumatic spraying by airbrush or airbrush gun. Can be diluted with distilled water. Nozzle diameter: 0.5 to 1.2 mm. Pressure: 1.1 - 8 bar (depending on airbrush or spray gun model). Compressed air must be free from water and oil. Paint must be thoroughly mixed and passed through a 190 micron filter before application.
Application with sponge, brush or roller: The optimum viscosity allows application by hand, touching up minor spots on the leather, creating a base coat for further treatment of the leather or restoring the colour.
