What It Does

Leather Alcohol Cleaner provides controlled solvent action to lift greasy soils, hand/body oils, dye transfer from textiles and light ink marks*. It leaves minimal residue, helping achieve a uniform, receptive surface for Leather Binder, Fillers, Primer and Colourant.

Use for spot cleaning and finish preparation where a water-only degreaser is insufficient. Always test on a hidden area to check sensitivity and colourfastness.

*Effect on permanent inks varies; complete removal is not guaranteed.

Professional Applications

• Automotive: steering wheels, bolsters, armrests and door panels before refinishing.
• Furniture: high-touch zones with glossy build-up or dye transfer.
• Leather goods: handles/straps and local prep before colour repair.

Compatible Leather Types

Finished/pigmented leather and many coated PU/artificial leather surfaces. Not recommended for suede or nubuck. On aniline/semi-aniline, use with extreme care and test first.

Technical Specifications

Use with ventilation; keep away from ignition sources. Exact solvent grade and percentages — requires verification.

Tips & Related Products

• Work in small sections; do not flood the surface. Replace cloths as they soil.
• For heavy grease, pre-clean with Leather Liquid Degreaser, then refine locally with Alcohol Cleaner.
• For coating removal/degloss, use Leather Prep after degreasing as needed.

What It Does

Leather Revive penetrates the fibre structure to replenish lost lubricants and restore suppleness to hardened leather. It improves flex, reduces creasing stress and prepares the substrate for subsequent filling, colouring and top-coating steps.

Ideal as a pre-treatment for restoration workflows: helps leather accept repair compounds and colour more evenly.

Where It Works

• Automotive interiors (classic cars, daily drivers)
• Furniture and upholstery
• Leather apparel, footwear and accessories

Not intended for suede or nubuck. For those materials use dedicated LeTech Suede & Nubuck solutions.

Professional Applications

• Standalone softening: revive stiff or dried leather to restore comfort and drape.
• Pre-repair care: soften before Surface Repair / Light Filler / Heavy Filler to reduce edge cracking and improve levelling.
• Pre-colour preparation: use before recolouring to support even absorption and flexible final film.

Technical Specifications

Tips & Related Products

• Pre-clean with Leather Ultimate Cleaner and degrease where needed before applying Revive.
• After softening and repairs, recolour with Leather Colourant and protect with Leather Top Coat.
• Always perform a small test in a hidden area to evaluate absorption and visual stability.

Why LeTech

Developed by a UK-based professional brand, Leather Revive brings deep, material-safe softening with modern, eco-conscious components. It’s trusted in restoration of classic automotive interiors, furniture and premium leather goods.

What It Does

Leather Solvent Cleaner quickly breaks down persistent films and embedded residues that water-based products cannot remove. Used with lint-free cloths or fine fibre pads, it evens gloss, feathers edges of unstable coating and prepares the substrate for Binder, Fillers, Primer, Colourant and Top Coat.

Recommended when Liquid Degreaser or Alcohol Cleaner are insufficient — for glossy build-up, silicone contamination and areas with micro-lifting of the top coat.

Professional Applications

• Automotive: steering wheels, bolsters and panels prior to recolouring.
• Furniture: armrests and high-touch zones with stubborn residues or failing finish.
• Leather goods: straps, edges and heavy-use areas before restoration.

Compatible Leather Types

Finished/pigmented leather and many coated PU/artificial leather surfaces. On aniline/semi-aniline use with extreme care. Not suitable for suede or nubuck. Always test on a hidden area.

Technical Specifications

Tips & Related Products

• Start with Leather Liquid Degreaser for general oils; use Solvent Cleaner where residues persist.
• For coating removal/keying, follow with Leather Prep to unify surface if required.
• Proceed with Leather Binder (if fibres are weak), then Light/Heavy Filler, Primer, Colourant, Top Coat.

Test first: aggressive action may affect sensitive or freshly coated areas.

What It Does

Foam works where liquids struggle: it carries contamination away from open fibers, reduces friction, and prevents deep wetting. The result is efficient cleaning that preserves colour, texture, and the characteristic nap of suede and nubuck.

Aftercare

Once dry, gently brush to lift the nap and refine the look. For long-term defence against water and stains, finish with LeTech Suede & Nubuck Protector WB.

For product selection and leather identification, consult LeTech specialists.

What It Does

Leather Grain Copying Set allows professionals to duplicate original leather grain from an intact area and reproduce it over filled or rebuilt zones.

• Follow immediately with Leather Binder or Leather Primer for best adhesion.

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

Recommended Workflow (Overview)

1. Prepare the finish: measure Top Coat, then add 10–15 % X-Guard Additive. Mix thoroughly until homogeneous.
2. Test panel: check sprayability, levelling and gloss on a sample piece; adjust air pressure/flow if needed.
3. Apply: spray thin, even coats per the Top Coat’s guidance; allow proper flash-off between coats.
4. 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.

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

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.

What It Does

Leather Re-Colouring Balm renews colour on worn or sun-faded areas and masks light surface scratches. The balm absorbs into the leather, supports softness and elasticity, and forms a durable, comfortable finish that resists everyday use.

Hydrophobic and soil-repellent components help protect against moisture and contamination while keeping the leather feel natural.

Where It Works

• Furniture leather
• Leather footwear & apparel
• Bags and leather accessories
• Craft & vegetable-tanned projects

Not for suede or nubuck — use dedicated Suede & Nubuck products.

Leather Types

• Aniline & semi-aniline
• Waxed & Pull-Up
• Two-tone “antique” finishes
• Vegetable-tanned leather

For best results, leather should be absorbent. Perform a small test spot.

How It’s Applied (Overview)

1. Clean: remove dust and dirt (Foam Leather Cleaner / Leather Ultimate Cleaner). Degrease heavy areas if needed (Leather Degreaser). Dry fully.
2. Apply: shake well. Use an applicator sponge; work the balm in circular motions with light pressure.
3. Level: allow the first coat to dry 5–10 minutes; inspect and re-apply if required.
4. Cure: let the piece dry for 6–12 hours for full set.
5. Polish: buff with a clean terry towel for an even tone and pleasant sheen.
