Colouring product does not dry out

· 4 replies · 2450 views

Hello, I made thanks to your products and advice a renovation of an armchair and sofa set. It worked pretty well, but at the head level, it never completely dries out and it stays sticky to the touch.

So I redecorated, sanded, stripped bare (full grain leather), degreased with acetone, switched to leaving, followed up your antique sebum product, dried, stained, etc.. In vain: always sticky to the touch, never dry.

What to do about it? Thank you for your advice.

    Hello,

    The problem is that when we have already re-colored in this area, the sebum cleaner is ineffective, you have set up a barrier between the product and the sebum which will now be very difficult to remove. You will have to strip several times, recolour very lightly. The re-colouring agent will extract a little sebum each time. Cleaning the sebum before re-colouring is very important and may require up to 7 or 8 cleanings over a period of ten days. You must therefore do many cleanings taking the time that recolouring goes down into the leather and the time that the leather dries naturally. If the problem persists in a month we will propose another solution.

    Hello,

    The re-colourant stays on the surface, something prevents it from going down into the leather, we can deliver a re-colourant designed to just hang on, it will not stick.
