Leather Metallic Additive
Leather Metallic Additive
Professional metallic/pearlescent effect additive for water-based leather dyes and colourants. Designed to be mixed into Leather Colourant and Leather Aniline Dye Pro to create clean metallic depth and a premium visual accent.
What It Does
Leather Metallic Additive introduces reflective metallic/pearl pigments into compatible leather dye systems, adding controlled sparkle, depth and a modern aesthetic without compromising application workflow. The result is a uniform, professional metallic look with consistent film formation when used as directed.
Note: the final shade and intensity of the metallic effect depend on the base colour, mixing ratio and application technique. Always prepare a test panel.
Professional Applications
- Automotive interiors: decorative panels, accents and custom details.
- Furniture & décor: statement pieces and designer elements.
- Leather goods & apparel: bags, jackets, small leather accessories.
Compatible Products
- Leather Colourant — water-based leather colourant (base system for metallic effects).
- Leather Aniline Dye Pro — professional aniline dye system (where metallic effect is desired).
