LeTech Leather Degreaser (Gel) – Professional Oil & Grease Remover for Leather Restoration
$43.90 USD
Unit price perProfessional Leather Degreaser for Oil & Grease Removal
LeTech Leather Degreaser is a professional absorbent gel designed to remove deep oil stains, body oils, grease, sweat, and contamination from leather before recoloring and restoration. Darkened steering wheels, shiny headrests, greasy jacket collars, and sticky leather surfaces are all caused by oil saturation inside the leather structure — not just on the surface. This product extracts embedded oils from within the fibers, preparing the leather for high-quality repair and refinishing.
Formulated with Vibrant Plus+ technology, this thick extraction gel penetrates the leather grain, absorbs contamination, and transforms into a powder as it dries — physically pulling grease to the surface. It acts as a visual indicator: white on clean areas, yellow to dark brown where oil has been successfully removed.
What This Leather Degreaser Does
Unlike surface cleaners, this professional leather degreaser targets oil trapped inside the leather structure. Complete oil removal is a critical step before recoloring, coating, or repair. Skipping this stage can lead to poor adhesion, peeling, or premature coating failure.
- Removes body oils (sebum) from steering wheels and armrests
- Extracts grease from furniture headrests and cushions
- Eliminates oil stains from food and air freshener spills
- Reduces ink transfer and ballpoint pen marks
- Prevents coating failure during leather recoloring
Professional Applications
- Automotive Interiors: Darkened steering wheels, gear shifters, seats, and armrests
- Furniture Restoration: Oil-saturated sofa headrests and hand-contact areas
- Leather Apparel: Greasy jacket collars and cuffs
- Luxury Leather Goods: Handbag handles, footwear, equestrian items
- Marine & Aviation Interiors: High-contact leather surfaces
Why Oil Removal Is Critical Before Recoloring
Oil contamination blocks adhesion. If grease remains inside the leather, new dye or coating will not properly bond. LeTech Leather Degreaser improves adhesion performance by ensuring the leather structure is fully decontaminated before refinishing. This significantly increases durability and longevity of restoration work.
