Angelus Dye is the most heavily pigmented dye on the market. Do not waste time with weak dyes. Angelus Dyes can also be diluted for desired color results. A permanent liquid dye used for many applications (like gourds, stone, woodworking, etc...) but designed for use on smooth leather articles. Guaranteed to penetrate leather and form a lasting color which will not peel, crack, or wash off. Excellent for use in manufacturing or re-coloring saddles, tack, shoes, belts, purses, wood, etc. Also used by Gourd Artists. Before dyeing, remove any dirt or existing finish by using Angelus Leather Preparer and Deglazer. To clean, dilute, or mix leather dye colors, use Angelus Dye Reducer Solvent. After dyeing, use one of the many Angelus finishers. Angelus Leather Dye is non-photochemical reactive. Please remember that dye is meant to be permanent. Once applied it may be difficult or impossible to remove.
