Angelus Leather Acrylic Paint has become a go-to for sneaker customization, leather artists, and makers who want to add serious color to finished leather. Made to stay flexible after it dries, Angelus Paint moves with properly prepared leather instead of behaving like ordinary rigid craft paint, making it especially useful on shoes and other projects that bend and flex during use.
Use it to customize sneakers, boots, belts, wallets, bags, jackets, patches, and other smooth leather or vinyl goods. The paint is self-leveling, which helps brush strokes settle as it dries, and the colors can be mixed together when you need a custom shade instead of something straight from the bottle.
Good preparation makes a big difference. On finished leather and sneakers, clean the surface and remove the existing factory finish with Angelus Leather Preparer & Deglazer before painting. Apply several thin, even coats, allowing each layer to dry before adding the next. Building color gradually gives you a cleaner finish and helps maintain flexibility.
Angelus also offers additives that let you adapt the paint to different jobs. Use 2-Thin when you need better flow for airbrushing, 2-Soft when painting canvas, denim, mesh, or other fabrics, 2-Hard for rigid surfaces such as hard plastic or metal, and Duller when you want to reduce the sheen. That makes the same paint system useful for much more than just smooth leather.
Once your artwork is finished, an Angelus Acrylic Finisher can be used to adjust the final sheen, or Angelus 4-Coat can be added when you want additional protection against scuffs and wear. Whether you're completely changing a pair of sneakers, restoring color, adding artwork, or simply painting a small leather accent, Angelus gives you plenty of room to make the project your own.
Please Note: DO NOT FREEZE. For best results on smooth leather, properly clean and prepare the surface before painting and apply multiple thin coats rather than one heavy coat. Suede and nubuck require products and techniques specifically intended for those surfaces.
