Leather Cross Linker X
Professional fast-acting hardener for waterborne polyurethane leather systems. Enhances film strength, rub fastness and chemical resistance in primers, colourants and top coats while maintaining flexibility.
What It Does
Leather Cross Linker X increases the degree of crosslinking in waterborne PU finishes, creating a denser polymer network and a tougher, more durable film. The result is improved wet and dry rub fastness, better resistance to water and household cleaners, and faster return-to-service.
Designed to be blended into the host component (primer / colourant / top coat) immediately before application. Mix only what you plan to use.
Professional Applications
- Automotive refinishing: bolster durability of seats and high-touch areas.
- Furniture finishing & restoration: improve wear and cleaning resistance.
- PU/artificial leather goods: enhance top-coat performance for bags, footwear and accessories.

Leather Slip Additive
Professional tactile modifier for water-based leather top coats. Reduces squeak and surface friction, adds a soft, silky hand and improves glide — without changing the colour or visual appearance of the finish when used as directed.
What It Does
Leather Slip Additive tunes the tactile behaviour of leather top coats: it lowers static and dynamic friction, mitigates contact noise (“squeak”), and creates a refined, smooth touch. The visual character of the coating remains unchanged — the modification is purely tactile.
Ideal where quiet operation, refined feel and effortless glide matter: premium interiors, furniture, leather goods.
Professional Applications
- Automotive & aviation interiors: quieter bolsters/armrests; smoother hand on contact zones.
- Furniture & upholstery: reduced squeak; premium soft-touch feel.
- Leather goods: refined glide for bags, jackets, small leather accessories.
Compatible Products
Designed to be mixed into water-based leather top coats. Particularly relevant for matte systems:
- Leather Top Coat Mat
- Leather Top Coat Mat X2
For any combined use with other additives (e.g., protection additives), prepare a small test batch first.
Technical Specifications
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | Tactile/slip additive for water-based leather top coats |
| Primary function | Reduces squeak & friction; enhances soft-touch feel and glide |
| Visual impact | No colour shift; no unwanted gloss when used as directed |
| Use level | Add gradually to the top coat until desired tactile effect is achieved (small-batch test required) |
| Application | Mix into top coat → test panel → apply per host top coat instructions |
| System | Water-borne finishing systems |
| Available volumes (US store) | 100 ml / 200 ml |
Tips & Related Products
- For the quietest, softest touch on matte finishes, mix into Leather Top Coat Mat or Mat X2.
- Always run a test panel to calibrate slip level without over-modifying the film.
- Apply in thin, even coats and allow proper flash/cure per the host top coat.
Why LeTech
Built for professional finishing workflows, LeTech tactile modifiers deliver a controlled, premium soft-touch experience without compromising colour accuracy or coating integrity. Integrates cleanly into water-based matte top coats for consistent, quiet, luxurious feel.
X-Guard Additive
Innovative, water-based additive for leather top coats. Boosts UV protection, abrasion resistance, dye-transfer defence and overall durability — without compromising feel or finish when used as directed.
What It Does
X-Guard Additive integrates into water-based leather finishes to form a tougher, more stable protective film. It raises resistance to mechanical wear, improves anti-soiling behaviour and helps the coating withstand UV exposure — keeping colour fresh and surfaces cleaner for longer.
X-Guard Technology is also integrated in several LeTech care products (e.g., selected creams, lotions and top coats), demonstrating proven in-range performance.
Technical Specifications
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | Water-based performance additive for leather finishing |
| Primary use | Leather Top Coat (Matt / Satin / Gloss) — water-based systems |
| Recommended dosage | 10–15 % by volume into the top coat (mix until fully homogeneous) |
| Key effects | UV protection, abrasion resistance, dye-transfer defence, enhanced soil repellency |
| Appearance impact | Does not add unwanted shine when used as directed; preserves tactile feel |
| Application method | Spray or pad application as per the host Top Coat’s TDS (test spray pattern; avoid over-application) |
| Compatibility | LeTech water-based leather finishes; small-batch test required for any non-standard mixes |
Recommended Workflow (Overview)
- Prepare the finish: measure Top Coat, then add 10–15 % X-Guard Additive. Mix thoroughly until homogeneous.
- Test panel: check sprayability, levelling and gloss on a sample piece; adjust air pressure/flow if needed.
- Apply: spray thin, even coats per the Top Coat’s guidance; allow proper flash-off between coats.
- Cure: let the coating dry/cure as specified in the Top Coat instructions before handling or polishing.
Always perform a small-area test on the target leather. Follow the host Top Coat’s safety and application instructions.
Why LeTech
X-Guard is a proprietary protection technology used by professionals worldwide. As an additive for top coats, it elevates finishing performance; as a built-in technology across selected LeTech creams, lotions and protective finishes, it brings long-term defence into everyday care routines.
Leather Thickening Agent
Professional water-based thickening additive for leather finishing systems. Increases viscosity and tunes rheology without affecting colour clarity, transparency, drying time or inter-coat adhesion when used as directed.
What It Does
Leather Thickening Agent is a functional polyurethane-based additive for water-borne leather systems. It raises viscosity and stabilises flow so coatings level cleanly, edges stay tidy, and vertical panels are less prone to drips or sags — all while preserving transparency and colour accuracy.
The additive does not change drying time of film-forming finishes and does not degrade inter-coat adhesion when used correctly.
Professional Applications
- High-gloss finishing: added into Leather Top Coat Gloss to create a super-gloss finish — essential for patent-leather shoe restoration.
- Vertical surfaces: reduce runs and improve edge control on seats, side panels and trim.
- Process tuning: adjust brush/spray workflow where a slightly thicker, more controlled laydown is desired.
Use strictly within recommended ranges and test on a small panel before full application.
Compatible Products
- Leather Colourant — water-based leather colourant.
- Leather Top Coat — water-based protective finishes (e.g., Gloss for super-gloss builds).
- Heavy Filler / Light Filler — repair compounds.
Add gradually and mix thoroughly to achieve target viscosity.
Technical Specifications
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | Water-based thickening additive for polyurethane dispersions |
| System | Water-borne leather coatings and compounds |
| Dosage (by volume) | 1–5 % into Leather Colourant, Leather Top Coat, Heavy/Light Filler |
| Effect on finish | Preserves transparency & colour; does not alter drying time; does not reduce inter-coat adhesion |
| Form | Ready to use; pre-dilution not required |
| Mixing | Stir until fully homogeneous before application |
| Available volumes (US store) | 100 ml / 200 ml |
Tips & Notes
- Start at the low end (≈1 %) and build up in small steps to avoid over-thickening.
- Evaluate sprayability/levelling on a test panel before full-scale application.
- For super-gloss builds on patent-leather restorations, use with Leather Top Coat Gloss.
Why LeTech
Trusted by professional refinishers, LeTech finishing additives deliver precise control with clean results. Leather Thickening Agent integrates seamlessly into water-borne colourants, top coats and repair compounds to help you work faster, cleaner and with greater consistency.
