White Leather Paint

Angelus Brand’s leather paint is trusted by artists, sneakerheads, and DIY enthusiasts for a reason: it offers great quality, smooth application, and results that last. 

Here's why Angelus Brand is a favorite for leather customization.

Brilliant Coverage & Opacity

This isn’t your average white paint. Angelus white leather paint delivers brilliant, opaque color that covers even dark surfaces quickly.

Just a few light coats are enough to completely transform your pair of sneakers or a leather jacket. You’ll love how easily it applies and how crisp the white finish turns out.

Durable, Non-Cracking Finish

Angelus paint flexes with the surface. Whether you’re painting a belt, leather bag, or something that moves a lot, like shoes or jackets, this acrylic leather paint won’t peel or crack. 

It's built to last and withstand everyday wear and tear. For a clean, matte finish, try Angelus Flat White Paint. This is perfect for subtle, low-gloss results on any leather surface.

Low-Gloss, Water-Resistant Results

This satin-finish paint provides a subtle sheen that mimics the look of a factory finish without being overly glossy. 

Once dry, it provides solid water resistance, allowing your artwork or restoration to withstand daily use. To further protect the finish, apply Angelus Acrylic Finisher.

Water-Based & Easy Cleanup

Our formula is water-based, so cleanup is quick and simple. Just use soap and water. 

You don’t need harsh chemicals, and there are no strong fumes, making it perfect for indoor projects or tight spaces.

Using Angelus white leather paint is straightforward, but for the best results, you’ll want to follow a few key steps.

1. Prep the Surface: Before applying paint, thoroughly clean the leather and remove the factory finish using Angelus Leather Preparer and Deglazer. This ensures the new coat will bond correctly.

2. Apply Thin Coats: Use a brush, sponge, or airbrush to apply multiple thin layers of paint. Allow each coat to dry completely before proceeding to the next.

3. Wait and cure: After your final coat, wait at least 24 hours before use. For added protection, apply a finisher.

If you're painting over a dark leather surface, consider applying a neutral base coat first to reduce the number of white layers needed.

Angelus paint can also be mixed with additives to enhance flexibility, shine, or to be used on non-leather surfaces, such as fabrics or canvas. 

The result? A customized piece that looks and feels like it was made specifically for you.

To make the most of your white leather paint project, following a few expert tips can help you get that smooth, professional finish Angelus is known for.

• Always Prep First: Use Angelus Preparer and Deglazer to remove the factory finish before painting.

• Go Light: White paint works best when applied in thin layers. A heavy coat can cause peeling or streaking.

• Let It Dry: Be patient between coats. Rushing can lead to cracks or uneven coverage.

• Avoid Heat: Let each coat air dry for the most durable results. Never use a heat gun.

• Customize Your Finish: Mix with a duller or finisher for satin or matte effects, or use additives to adapt to various fabrics and plastics.

Once you're satisfied with your finish, step back and admire the results. Then, protect it with a finisher or sealant if needed.
