Leather Degreaser ( Gel )
Leather Degreaser
Professional gel-based formula for extracting oil, grease, and sebum from leather without damaging its structure. Suitable for both restoration and preparation before dyeing or refinishing.
What It Does
Leather Degreaser is a thick, absorbing gel designed to draw deeply embedded oils and greasy contaminants out of leather. Once dry, the gel turns into a powder, lifting contaminants to the surface for easy removal. Its indicator effect shows areas with remaining contamination via visible discoloration, guiding precise reapplication.
This product is an essential preparatory step before recoloring leather, especially in cases where natural or body oils have compromised surface absorption.
Professional Applications
- Automotive: Removes grease from steering wheels, headrests, and seats.
- Furniture: Treats oil stains on armrests, cushions, and frequently touched areas.
- Garments: Degreases leather jackets, collars, and accessories affected by skin oils.
- Restoration: Critical before recoloring or restoring aniline and semi-aniline leather.
Can be used on aniline, semi-aniline, pull-up, vegetable-tanned, waxed leather, suede, and nubuck.
