Description

The innovative Leather Re-Colouring Balm EXPERT LINE is based on a brand-new formula using the latest colouring pigments and protective components, ensuring excellent results with every use.

The balm is designed to restore colour and care for articles made of absorbent leather types.

The Leather Re-Colouring Balm EXPERT LINE works perfectly on those places, which have been exposed to sunlight, faded or rubbed out, and is suitable for painting over minor damages of the leather (scuffs, small scratches and discoloured areas of the leather).

The balm is fully absorbed into the leather and does not wash out during use. The balm contains natural ingredients, which keep the leather soft, supple and pristine appearance.

The balm also contains hydrophobic and dirt-repellent components, which protect the leather from moisture, external environment and pollution.

The Leather Re-Colouring Balm EXPERT LINE is also ideal for tinting leather goods made from vegetable and aniline leather.

The Leather Re-Colouring Balm is ideal for restoring the colour of the following types of leather:

• Furniture leather;
• Footwear and leather clothing;
• Leather Accessories;
• Not suitable for suede and nubuck leather.

Advantages

Benefits of the Leather Re-Colouring Balm:

• Forms a hard-wearing and soft coating that is resistant to water, aggressive environments and weathering;
• Colourless colour of dyed leather under the influence of UV-radiation and other external factors;
• It is highly decorative, retains the softness of leather, does not give the painted surface a filmy feel;
• It is recommended for use as a topcoat, both for repairs of minor leather damage and as a topcoat for full coverage;
• The comfortable viscosity of the balm allows it to be applied with a sponge applicator, brush or roller;
• The highest class of ecological safety;
• Meets modern leather industry standards.

Colour palette

The balm is available in three popular colours to be mixed with each other:

• Black;
• Dark Brown;
• Light Brown;
• Neutral (colourless balsam designed to retain and saturate the colour of leather and give added protection).

Balsam (Neutral) can be used as a base for mixing with the Leather Colourant and the Leather Aniline Dye leather dyes, so you can choose the colour you want from the balsam and colour your product in any shade.

Instructions

SURFACE PREPARATION

The process of balm restoration consists of several important steps, which must be carefully followed to obtain the best result.

1. The leather surface should be thoroughly cleaned of dust, dirt and foreign matter, using a professional Leather Ultimate Cleaner;
2. When the leather is heavily soiled and oily, as is often the case with leather jacket collars, bed headboards and the like, the leather should be cleaned in advance. Dirt and grease should be removed first, using the Leather Degreaser;
3. After thorough cleaning, you can now apply the Leather Re-Colouring Balm.

Shake the product thoroughly before applying. Apply a small quantity of the balm on the Sponge applicator and rub in circular motions with slight pressure to ensure better penetration. After the first layer, allow it to dry for 5-10 minutes and inspect the leather to make sure there are no streaks or missing spots. If necessary, repeat the process of applying the balm one more time and allow the product to dry for 6-12 hours, for complete polymerization of the balm. After the balm has completely dried, polish the surface with a clean terry towel.

Polishing will give the leather a more even colour and a pleasant shine. For further care of your leather, we recommend you use our Leather Care Kit Advanced - this will give your leather a much longer life, and you will enjoy your leather in its pristine condition for a much longer time. The Leather Re-Colouring Balm EXPERT LINE can be used on a variety of leather goods, from leather furniture to clothes, shoes and bags.

The balm works perfectly on leather of different colours and textures. It is suitable for absorbent leathers:

• Aniline and semi-aniline;
• Waxed leather and pull-Up;
• Two-tone antique leather;
• Vegetable-tanned leather.
