Angelus Acrylic Leather Paint, 1 oz, Pale Blue

I should have taken before/after pics of my couch but I forgot! We have a grey leather couch, one we thought was all leather. Turns out parts are leather and parts are not. The parts that were not leather started to delaminate all of a sudden and looked horrible. I watched some Youtube channel that suggested using these leather paints to paint over the parts that were delaminated. I figured for the price of these paints it couldn't hurt to try and wouldn't make it look any worse than it did.I am happy to report it did fabulously! I had to order a few colors and mix them together (trial and error) to get the right shade to match our couch. I just used a small glass dish, poured the paints in and mixed them together, tested, adjusted colors, etc. It was SUPER EASY to do. This is not creating new leather, but because it is paint that is suitable to paint onto leather, it dries flexible. This is what makes it good to cover spots where the material has delaminated.Tips:peel off ALL flaking pieces of the material, even if it makes a larger bare spot.Paint a layer using a small "artist" style brush, so you have more control over where it goes.Let the layer dry before adding a new a layer. My first layer really kind of soaked into the fuzzy fabric, but other layers did just fine. I added about 5 or 6 layers. I waited several hours or overnight, mostly because I had to order new colors to try to make a better match. I think layers of some colors that were close but not quite kind of added some depth, since our couch is not a single shade of grey.Final layer add a top coat (matte, satin, or gloss). This one needs to dry overnight.End result, the bare patches are totally covered. Have withstood our dog laying on top of it (top of the couch). From a short distance, blends right in. You would not notice it unless you were looking for it. It feels rougher to the touch, but I will take that for a $30 fix over a $3000 replacement.

I am a very happy customer. I have purchased a number of paints for my couches and none ever stay. This paint works great!!! The color dries quickly and looks great. It made my couch go from a curb side couch to a new couch!I cleaned the couch first before putting any product on it and used a sponge for even distribution. I do have two German shorthaired pointers and they are always on the couch, so my couches were bad!! I do clean them once every week. I will show some before and after. Don’t get the cream paints. Those don’t last and will fade.

I've been looking for a pair of white closed toe sandals that I liked and were comfortable for a couple of years. I just found a pair of Korks (which I love) here on Amazon and thought they were light enough that I should be able to get them "dyed" white. Not long after I received them, I started looking through the site to see if there was a way I could color them. First I thought of white shoe polish, but the only white shoe polishes they have are to help bring back the whiteness in already white shoes. I saw this Angelus Acrylic Paint and read the reviews. Everyone noted that it covered well and was easy to use. I figured I'd give it a try as the worst thing that could happen was it didn't work and I'd have to take them to a local shoe shop to have them "dye" them for me.Let me first say I am neither a painter nor an artistic person. I can paint a wall, but who can't (ha ha)! I purchased the paint in white as well as ordering their Acrylic Finisher and an inexpensive pack of sponge brushes. As you can see....IT WORKED!!!! I finally have a pair of white closed toe sandals that are really comfortable and I love. The painting was easy and after letting them sit for a couple of days I applied the finisher to give them a little shine and to seal and protect the paint. Clean up was a breeze with a little running water in the sink. I couldn't be more happy. Believe me, if I can do it ANYONE can!!!!!As an FYI, I gave the "sheerness" one star as the paint isn't supposed to be sheer -- it's supposed to cover the leather and make it white! If I ever have another home project or have a friend who does Angelus paint is the product I'm going to use and recommend. So thankful for a great American made product!

Excellent product goes on smoothly without smells. No drip and easy to apply the shine is perfect.

I love this leather paint. My daughter gave me a recliner that had a lot of scuff marks from her dogs and the regular wear and tear. Applied this and it looks good as new. My only downfall is I should’ve bought one with an applicator, I use this one with paper towel. I would’ve liked the applicator better.

This is amazing! A co worker told me about it. We have to wear navy shoes for work…I found comfortable black shoes and used the acrylic leather shoe paint. I was a little nervous but the result is wonderful! I used only one coat of paint and they are NAVY!! No streaks, I used a small paintbrush. And this was over black leather.

I rarely write reviews, but I was genuinely so pleased with this product. I had a pair of faux-leather loafers in a weird color too close too my skintone. I chose dark gray to try to give them a makeover. Super easy to use with a regular paintbrush. It dried evenly except for a few patches where I applied too much at once (I suggest going in thin layers). The shoes look great. I also dyed a watch band I had and still have tons of this stuff leftover. For $10, that's a pretty incredible deal. I'm going to buy more colors. FYI, the dark gray is pretty dark and has almost a blueish tint to it.

I used this to paint a friend’s leather jacket with the design he’d been wanting from his favorite band. I was very nervous that I would mess it up but after watching some tutorials on using their other products for preparing the leather everything worked great. It was easy to use and even though the bottle is small, a little bit went a long way. So far the paint has held up well and still looks great even without me sealing it.
