TECH TIPS

Do leather repair without sanding compounds!!!

  1. Clean with Z7 Leather Cleaner using a nylon brush. Two applications work the best.
  2. Clean with Silicone Wash
  3. When cracks are present wet sand with 220 using Sand Away. Make sure you keep the area wet and you will get a slurry area that will make the cracks almost disappear. The cracks are caused by the stressed finish in the leather. Wipe with Sand Away and let dry.
  4. Using a plastic spreader put a very smooth coat of Deep Leather Fill if needed. Allow to dry, use a hair dyer if needed. This will fill in any damage that is left after using Sand Away. Repeat if necessary.
  5. Using a Bounty Paper Towel wipe Leather Fill wiping very fast back and forth across the repaired area. The Leather Fill will dry almost immediately so be very quick. This will fill any minor imperfections and smooth over and edges that may be left from the first step. There will be times when this step is not needed if there are no imperfections left after the Deep Leather Fill.
  6. Use the same process as step 4 only with Leather Cream Fill and this will leave a soft leather feel finish to your repair.

With this process you should not have to sand any compounds and have a smooth perfect repair.
Remember to use Water Base Flatner in your Water Base Dye to make the repair area less obvious. If your leather has a grain to it use Water Base Spray Grain or Leather Clone before coloring to get the texture you desire.

Note: When using the Leather Heat Compound for holes or punctures, after cleaning and curing start from step 4 and you can finish the repair the with the same results. One thing you should do after curing the Leather Heat Compound is rub or spray a light coat of a solvent base product (guide coat of solvent dye or Leather Clone) . This will help the Deep Leather Fill stick to the non-pourous product.
