FAQs

How do I choose the right color?

Select a color that closely matches the original leather color. You can also mix colors to achieve a custom shade. Test in a hidden area first to ensure the match.

How long does the color last?

The recolored finish is durable and long-lasting, but the longevity depends on the leather's use and care. Regular cleaning and conditioning can help maintain the color.

Can I use this on artificial leather?

No, this balm is designed specifically for absorbent leather. It will not work on artificial leather or vinyl.

How much balm do I need?

The amount needed depends on the size of the item and the extent of the damage. A small amount goes a long way. Start with a small amount and add more as needed.

What should I do if I get the balm on my clothes?

While the balm is designed not to transfer once dry, any accidental transfer should be treated promptly. Follow the garment's care instructions for spot cleaning.

Can I use this on suede or nubuck?

No, this product is designed for smooth, absorbent leather only. It is not suitable for suede or nubuck.

How do I store the balm?

Store the balm in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.

Troubleshooting

Color doesn't match

Apply additional coats of the balm to deepen the color. Test in a hidden area first.

Balm doesn't absorb

The leather may not be absorbent. Test a small area by applying a drop of water. If the water beads up, the leather is not absorbent.

Color transfer after drying

Ensure the balm is fully dry and buffed. If color transfer persists, reapply the balm, allowing it to dry completely, and then buff again.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Preparation: Ensure the leather item is clean and dry. Use a leather cleaner to remove dirt and grime.
Testing: Test the absorbency of the leather by applying a small drop of water onto a hidden area. If the water soaks in and darkens the leather, it is absorbent and suitable for the balm.
Application: Apply the balm evenly using a clean cloth. Use circular motions to ensure good coverage.

Compatibility

The Leather Recolouring Balm is designed for absorbent leather. It is suitable for a wide range of leather items, including furniture, car interiors, shoes, handbags, and clothing. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
