ICON Pocket Colour Wheel
Colour Wheel (13 cm)
Compact professional colour wheel for fast, reliable colour matching, mixing and neutralising in leather restoration workflows. Purpose-built for dye and pigment work on automotive, furniture and leather goods projects.
What It Does
The Colour Wheel (13 cm) visualises primary, secondary and tertiary relations to help you predict results when tinting leather colourants and dyes. It highlights complementary pairs to cancel unwanted tints, and guides split-complementary, triadic and analogous schemes for precise shade building.
Use it to neutralise green/blue/red casts, tune warmth or coolness, and plan mixes before committing material — saving time, product and rework.
Professional Applications
- Automotive: steering wheels, bolsters and panels where ageing shifts hue.
- Furniture: seat cushions and armrests with uneven fade/undertone.
- Leather goods: bags, jackets and footwear requiring subtle tone correction.
How It Helps with Leather Work
- Identify undertones and choose the correct complementary neutraliser.
- Plan pigment ratios for coverage vs. chroma with minimal greying.
- Translate customer shade targets into reproducible mixes for your system.
