Angelus Leather Preparer & Deglazer, 5oz

The product is excellent because it does not damage the leather but rather prepares it for dying you just need to be patient and wait for it to dry off after you’ve glazed at least a few hours before you try

Buena calidad

Perfect brand for customization

Item Worked Well

It does what it's supposed to do and really works at stripping down leather finishes. Not as harsh as acetone, which is a cheaper alternative but one that can take the colour off. Expensive for what is is but can't knock the product.

bought solid white "leather" boots forever ago for like $5 with the intent to paint them a sparkly metallic pink. Let me tell you, I have tried various paint brands (from apple barrel to liquitex) and each time I redid the paint, it cracked and peeled and had to be redone. I was skeptical about putting in even more money on new paint for the shoes but u have worn them several times outside and there isn't a single crack in the paint! they seem to be holding up and I wish I had just spent the money in the first place. Angelus brand leather paints allow mixing of colors and I ended up mixing Pearlescent Rose Gold, metallic silver, and hot pink. I wish I had used less pink and silver because the rose gold looks much better in person than pictured. The final repaint of these boots consisted of using their deglazer, mixing a bottle of paint of ONLY Angelus brand leather paints, and then once dried I covered it with 2 or 3 coats of Angelus glitterlite candy pink glitter (it looks more red than pink in person, in my opinion) and then finished with one of angelus' acrylic finishers. I'm not sure about how well it would have gone without the deglazer or finisher. but I figured I'd share my experiences! save your time and grief and use this brand!
