About this product
Angelus Satin 4-Coat is a satin clear coat for painted sneakers and leather that leaves a "factory" finish, not too glossy and not too matte. It's urethane-based, so it adds heavy scuff resistance on top of your custom work.
Choose a 1 oz. or 4 oz. bottle. It's made in the USA.
How to use it
- Let your Angelus Paint dry completely.
- Brush or airbrush it on.
- Let each coat dry before adding another.
Brushing tips
- Use a fine, soft brush like our Angelus brushes. Heavy or cheap brushes leave strokes.
- Level it out as you go with a hair dryer or heat gun.
- Don't keep brushing once it starts to dry, or it can turn hazy.
Airbrushing tips
- Spray a full, heavy coat without letting it drip.
- Don't spray too light. A thin mist won't build a strong layer that adheres.
What customers say
“This finish is the perfect in between of flat and glossy. It gives a little sheen to the finished product similar to a factory finish.”
★★★★★ Jennifer N., Philadelphia, PA
“4coat Satin was easier to use than Acrylic Finisher Satin because it is harder and does not produce a glossy finish.”
★★★★★ Tomoko S., Koga, Japan
“I used this on a leather chair. This finish was easy to apply with a brush.”
★★★★★ Lisa S.
Common questions
Should I use 4-Coat or Acrylic Finisher?
Use 4-Coat when you want heavy scuff resistance. Angelus Paint is sturdy on its own, but 4-Coat adds an extra layer of protection. If you just want to change the sheen, use Angelus Acrylic Finisher.
Should I brush or airbrush 4-Coat?
Both work. Airbrushing gives the smoothest result, especially on glossier sheens. If you brush, use a fine Angelus brush and level it with a hair dryer or heat gun.
Why does my 4-Coat look hazy?
It's usually from brushing while it's drying. Brush it on, level it with heat, then leave it alone to dry.
Why isn't my 4-Coat sticking?
The coat is probably too light. Spray a full, heavy coat without dripping so it builds a strong layer on top.
Which 4-Coat sheen looks most like a factory finish?
Satin. It has a light sheen that's close to how most new sneakers look.
