Mix Clear Prep+Finish™ with any color to make a more transparent glaze and use for:
- priming absorbent aniline or top-grain leather;
- printing, marbling or burnishing to create a distressed or antiqued appearance;
- or for a satin or semi-gloss finish.
Use alone for a glossy finish (leather only). Do not use if you desire a matte finish.
NOTE: Mixing Clear Prep+Finish™ into colors that contain a lot of yellow, red, blue or green pigment (Buckskin, Butterscotch, Camel, Cognac, Mustard, Chocolate, Brick, Rust, Cherrywood, Red Chili, Wine, Plum, Midnight Blue, Storm Blue, Lagoon, Sea Foam and Pine) may result in a more vivid hue than simply using Clear Prep+Finish™ alone as a topcoat.
Do not use as a topcoat on vinyl or on any fabric, suede, nubuck, bonded or faux leather. Store at room temperature.Click here for SDS (Safety Data Sheet).
There were no tears at all. There were a couple dirty spots on the cushions but a mixture of rubbing alcohol and water took the small spots right up. It was just incredibly dried out from sitting in storage. Out of curiosity I checked the tag and this was made in Italy. I think this is the best 250$ I have spent in my life.
I carefully followed the directions for preparation, cleaning, and application. The results were all the same, and disappointing. It did not leave any luster, as the product promised, although the sofa had a nice shine when new. Additionally, all the leather furniture had been soft and supple, and after use of the product, became stiff and rough like sandpaper. The dog's nail marks on the leather sofa, which never showed before, are now clearly visible.
I would never use this product again nor recommend it to others.
