Leather Binder
Leather Binder
A professional water-based polymer binder engineered to re-strengthen fatigued leather fibres. Penetrates into the fibre matrix, binds loose fibres together and restores integrity on worn, frayed, or weakened leather — the ideal base layer before fillers and colour restoration.
What It Does
Leather Binder consolidates worn leather by saturating and binding the inner fibre structure, making weak areas tougher and less prone to tearing. Use it to stabilise surfaces prior to applying repair compounds and colour systems, or as a standalone solution for minor wear.
Apply in thin, even layers with a sponge or brush; avoid excessive foaming. Dry each layer with warm air at approximately 40–60 °C before applying the next one for optimum consolidation.
Professional Applications
- Pre-repair consolidation: strengthen frayed, thinned leather before using Light/Heavy Fillers.
- Minor wear treatment: reduce fibre fuzz and restore surface integrity on edges and bolster areas.
- System foundation: create a uniform, stable base for primer, colourant and top coat.
Compatible Leather Types
Intended for smooth finished/pigmented leather and many coated PU/artificial leather surfaces used in automotive, furniture and leather goods. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Not suitable for suede or nubuck.

Tips & Related Products
- Degrease and remove unstable finish before use to maximise penetration.
- Feather edges of damaged zones; consolidate fibres first, then proceed with fillers.
- Follow with Leather Light Filler or Heavy Filler, then Leather Primer, colourant and top coat.
