Cognac Vinyl & Leather Finish

Our water-based finishes work on:

• absorbent aniline and semi-aniline leather,
• non-absorbent full-grain or top-grain leather,
• and vinyl upholstery.

Do not use on fabric, suede, nubuck, bonded or faux leather.

Our finishes won’t sun fade or backstain like leather dyes. They don't feel plasticky, flake or peel like spray paints.

Changing color requires poses more maintenance than simply restoring to original. The following are not good candidates and will require touch-up:

• changing from red / dark to white / pale;
• worn, cracking, scaly or thinning leather;
• furniture with lots of wrinkles, folds, deep creases (and therefore stress);
• pieces that are heavily used or harshly cleaned (kids, dogs, chemicals);
• car or boat upholstery;
• bonded, faux or polyurethane (PU) ‘leather’ which repel all finishes (including their own).

Thorough cleaning and stress testing the color are critical! Add 1/2 teaspoon cross-linker per every 2 oz color to improve adhesion and durability. Adding 1 part Satin Sealer to 4 parts color is also recommended to seal bright colors.

Order swatches to see how our colors compare. Or send a sample for free color testing and, if necessary, customization.

Colors and clear finishes get the same coverage per bottle. Usually 2-3 coats of color are needed where only one coat of clear finish is needed (so buy half as much of it).

A little goes a long way! These estimates can vary based upon quality and condition of material.

• 2 oz. covers ~ 15 – 20 square feet
• 4 oz. covers ~ 30 – 40 square feet
• 8 oz. covers ~ 60 – 80 square feet
• 16 oz. covers ~ 120 – 160 square feet

Butterscotch, Cherrywood, Brick, Wine, Red Chili, Plum, Midnight Blue, Storm Blue, and Lagoon need a clear topcoat.

• Satin Sealer can be used on both leather and vinyl and dries low luster, similar to the color.
• Clear Prep+Finish can only be used on leather and dries glossy.
