Full details
The Pebeo Setacolor Leather Preparer Deglazer (110ml) is designed for artists, crafters, and leatherworkers looking to achieve durable, vibrant paint finishes on leather. Its key benefit is ensuring superior paint adhesion by thoroughly cleaning and preparing the surface. A minor consideration is that it is a preparer, not a paint itself, and requires painting after application.

FAQs
What is the primary function of this product?
Its primary function is to clean and prepare leather surfaces by removing dirt, oils, and finishes, which significantly improves paint adhesion.
Can I use this on vegan leather?

How much product should I use?
Apply a small amount to a cloth or sponge and wipe the surface evenly. You do not need to saturate the leather.
Do I need to rinse the leather after using the preparer?
No, the product evaporates and leaves the surface ready for painting once dry. Do not rinse.
How long does the leather need to dry after applying the preparer?
The leather typically dries within a few minutes. Ensure it is completely dry before applying paint.
What should I do if I get the preparer on areas I don't want to paint?
Wipe away any excess immediately with a clean, dry cloth before it dries.
Is this product a paint or a primer?
This is a preparer/deglazer. It cleans and prepares the surface for paint but does not contain color itself. You will need to apply leather paint afterward.
Troubleshooting
Paint not adhering well after preparation
Ensure the surface was completely dry before painting and that no residue from the preparer remains. Reapply the preparer if necessary, ensuring thorough drying.
Surface appears uneven after application
Wipe more gently and ensure even pressure during application. Allow to dry fully before proceeding.
Product has dried out in the bottle
Ensure the cap is sealed tightly. If dried, it may no longer be effective. Purchase a new bottle.
