Neutral Binder is a strong binder which stabilises the surface of the leather without making it too stiff. It is used for damages to the leather surface where it has become brittle and need to be smoothed down prior to repairing it.
Amount: 250 ml bottle.
Some old pigmented, smooth leather get brittle surfaces. Such damages cannot be repaired by only using COLOURLOCK Leather Fresh andCOLOURLOCK Fluid Leather. Leather Fresh is perfect on scratches, rubbed off colour and slight fading. Fluid Leather is optimal to fill deeper cracks and rips. It is however not suitable if an entire surface needs to be repaired.
To find out whether only the colour or the leather is damaged, you should move your hand over the damaged area. If the resistor is in one direction, then the leather is also damaged. The fibre structure of the animal skin is positioned obliquely and therefore leads to this phenomenon. In such areas, the COLOURLOCK Neutral Binder is the right product to use.
First degrease the repair area thoroughly with COLOURLOCK Leather Cleaning Spirit. Don’t use Mild or Strong Leather Cleaner in damaged areas! The damaged area would only soak the liquid and the leather will get stiffer. The regular cleaning products are only recommended for undamaged surfaces.
After degreasing, apply Neutral Binder with a sponge in the direction of the fibre structure and let dry on its own between applications (do not use a hairdryer!). If necessary, repeat the process and smooth rough areas with the COLOURLOCK Sanding Pad. Neutral Binder is a strong binder which stabilises the surface of the leather without making it too stiff. Rougher areas can also be processed with a brush. Deeper cracks and rips can be filled with Fluid Leather. Last step is smoothing down rough areas with the Sanding Pad.
After the repair work, use COLOURLOCK Leather Fresh to recolour the repaired area. Apply several times and dry in between with a hairdryer.
To protect the result COLOURLOCK Leather Protector is recommended. With its antioxidants the Leather Protector reduces the disintegration of the leather. With its UV filters, the surfaces of old leather are protected from fading. In addition, the leather regains a smoother surface.
Important! The application range of Neutral Binder is the limit for re-covering. The leather will not be as good as new, but will be stabilised for a further period.
