Hey guys,
Anyone ever painted their leathers?? Im think of throwing some colour on my ultra used white leathers, boots and gloves...
Anyone have any tips, tricks, products etc to use??
Ive found the cheap american leather paint that gets great reviews online but i want to know if its really as easy as they say... just roll/brush it on etc etc
Cheers,
Carl-52

yellow would probably be closest
Hmmm might suit could use a bit of a black touch up from this one time I slid off my chair

this is the only Australian supplier i could find for the Angelus leather paints (the ones everyone rave about online) They have heaps of colours and Neon colours (American equivalent of fluro). Plus they are rediculously cheap
Hell yeah, thanks Carl!! I'm gonna order some fluoro, and go nuts on my old suit!!!

Marshy!!!!, can you order me some while your at it??? Save on postage etc etc
3x 1oz pots of 057 Neon Tropic Sun yellow please
I've seen mick leathers post a few pictures on color repair.
I'd be asking will the dye effect the strength of the cotton used the hold it all together...If you want a gayish coloured suit just get one made...Collins leathers design custom fit $1100.0 shipped in any colours.
Do a search for VGA auto paints on YouTube. They have an awesome spray on product for changing the colour of leather and a tutorial on the tube

i need to change the colour of a black suit to white
Probably need to strip back the black as much as possible first
How'd you go with this Carl?

PM him, ill mention it of course , i know hes very happy with the results so far
that looks awesome, which paint did you go with in the end?
Far out... That looks great! Do they come in fluoro green?
That's awesome! My boots now have that great "beige" look that only the right mix of oil, grime and time in the litter box can achieve... It might be time for a change.
just pm carl he can tell you where he got it and how much it was etc
ok guys!!! Uni work is finally finished!!!! WOOOOOOOO, Anyways, boots and gloves and been carlbotaged in the appropriate Fluro colour... They have pretty much any colour you can think of including turquiose!! lol < sisters fav colour....... Paint can be mixed too to create some funky colours. Anyway its cheap as chips and takes no time at all to do, couple of coats with a brush or roller and its done. I bought the paint from the link i posted previously... Tasmanian dude had it at my house 2 days after i ordered it Heres his facebook page so you can see some of the stuff he does. https://www.facebook.com/chasezdesignz
Have you tried a lighter colour on a darker one? eg white on blue. Also hows it cope after a couple of wears. Any cracking ect.
*edit not me guys just some pics i found*
Clearly you can get some good results with dyes, I'm actually really impressed.
This was the original suit

Can't wait to see what you do with your suit Carl

The suit on that last pic is exactly what I want but in fluoro green! Didnt think it would look so good over black... Impressed again!
haha im doing some photoshop images for my suit right now and the fairing Marshy gave me... the paint is really flexible, ive scrunched up my gloves into a ball and didnt see any sign of wear at all. so far so good. tried fluro yellow over black without any prep or stripping, took a while but it looks ok now... I will try strip the black off and repaint it light coloured on a test piece soon.
Thanks for the heads up on the paint! I'm in progress now
Getting carried away now…
