How much paint should I use?
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.
Is applying a white coat of paint necessary before doing anything else?
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.
Should I apply the leather paint in several coats?
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.
For how long does the paint need to dry?
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.
How can I reduce the glossiness of the paint?
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.
Is the leather paint suited for every type of leather?
Yes, the Angelus Leather Paint is suited for all types of smooth leather. For non-smooth leather such as suede, we offer various dyes.
Which brushes are the most suitable?
Acrylic brushes do not leave any streaks behind. Other soft brushes will also work for the same reason.
How do I clean the brushes?
Cleaning the brushes is easy by using water or an acrylic remover.
Can the paints be mixed?
Yes, all Angelus Leather Paint colours can be safely mixed with one another to create a different desired shade.
The standard colour is too dark. What can I do?
If you find one of our colours is too dark, then easily lighten it by mixing it with neutral-coloured paint.
Is using a finisher necessary?
The quality of the Angelus leather paint is such that using a finisher is not necessary. However, you will ensure maximum benefits and protection by applying a finisher. We especially recommend using finishers, if only a part of an item surface has been painted, in which case the result will be even more even.
Can I use an airbrush?
Angelus Leather Paint can also be applied excellently with an airbrush. Some customers choose to slightly thin the paint first using Angelus Finisher, so that the leather paint moves through the nozzle better.
