AdviceRedyeing a Saddle (in matching tones)To recolor a leather saddle without changing its colour, the AVEL products allow you to use the same finishing procedures as in the tanning industry, for all types of smooth and non varnished leather.
1 - The first step consists in perfectly cleaning the leather and removing all traces of grease:
. To clean your leather, use the Cleaning Regenerating Soap. It takes off all coats of wax, gives back its natural appearance and opens the leather pores for better penetration of the colour pigments. . Pay particular attention to sebum deposits due to the transpiration of rider and horse, which have to be perfectly eliminated with the Stain Remover Hussard Leather and Textile Spray.
2 - Once the leather is perfectly clean, greaseless and completely dry, go to the repigmenting phase which will give back to your leather an original finish and eliminate all traces of discoloration, wear, cracks etc:
Proceed according to the following 2 steps: . Spread the Pigmenting Cream in small quantities by massageing the leather with the help of the Applicator Foam Pad (included) or with a Cotton Cloth. Let dry for approx. 5 hours. Check the degree of penetration and the choice of colour on a hidden part of the saddle. If the cream leaves any marks, try to apply it with a humid Sponge, or a paint roller, or by dabbing for a better hold of the first layer.
. Afterwards, it is essential to fix the Pigmenting Cream in-depth with the Pigmentig Cream Fixing Spray. Each layer has to to be fixed. Afterwards, the colour will hold perfectly and won't discharge on your clothes.
Remarks : - If necessary, you can apply two coats of Pigmenting Cream. Be sure to fix the first coat before applying the second. - Valmour also proposes the Development of a Made-to- Order Pigmenting Cream ( see advice card "Development of a Made-to-Order Pigmenting Cream"). This service will cost 45 €. Please provide us with a sample of your leather of at least 2 cm². - This solution will give you the best quality result, but also represents a cost by no means insignificant. Instead, you can also use the Juvacuir. It cannot be made-to-order and doesn't need a Fixing Spray, and the result will be less resistant in time. - To refreshen the colour without using a dye, clean your saddle with the Cleaning Regenerating Soap and afterwards use the Cream Renovator in the matching shade.
