Jet Black Leather Dye

Angelus Jet Black Leather Dye is a black leather dye for recoloring and restoring sneakers, boots, dress shoes, and other leather goods. It soaks into the leather instead of sitting on top like paint, giving a deep, even black.

Choose a 3 oz. bottle, pint, or quart.

How to use it

1. Clean the leather and remove the factory finish with Angelus Leather Preparer & Deglazer so the dye can soak in.
2. Apply the dye evenly.
3. Let the leather dry completely, then add another coat if you want a deeper black.
4. Seal it with Angelus Acrylic Finisher for added protection.

Common questions

Do I need to deglaze before dyeing?

Yes. The factory finish blocks dye from soaking in, so strip it first with Angelus Leather Preparer & Deglazer.

Is there a low-VOC version?

Yes. Angelus Jet Black Low VOC Leather Dye is a lower-VOC option.
