Angelus Gift Box Blue is a professional-grade, water-based acrylic paint specifically formulated for the restoration and customization of leather surfaces. Unlike standard craft paints, this formula is engineered to penetrate the surface of leather, vinyl, and canvas, creating a permanent bond that remains flexible after drying. This ensures that the Gift Box Blue pigment can withstand the natural mechanical stress and constant flexing of footwear without losing adhesion or developing surface cracks.

To achieve optimal results, the leather must be prepped with a deglazer to remove the factory topcoat, allowing the paint to bond directly to the material. Applying the paint in multiple thin layers, rather than one thick coat, promotes a smooth, level finish and prevents the pigment from peeling. Once fully cured over a 24-hour period, the Gift Box Blue finish becomes entirely waterproof and provides an industrial-strength barrier against scuffs and environmental wear.

Formula: Water-based, non-toxic acrylic suspension designed for maximum flexibility on leather and vinyl.

Application: Can be applied via brush, sponge, or airbrush (requires thinning with Angelus 2-Thin for spray applications).

Coverage: High-pigment density provides excellent opacity; for the brightest Gift Box Blue results on dark surfaces, a white base coat is recommended.

Durability: Engineered for long-term resistance to water, fading, and abrasive scuffing.

Sizes: Available in 1 oz, 4 oz, Pint, and Quart bottles to accommodate both small touch-ups and large-scale manufacturing.

PAINTING LEATHER

1. Prepare leather surfaces using 3-5 passes of Angelus Leather Preparer & Deglazer using our applicators, cotton balls, or a rag. (acetone can also be used).

2. Wait for leather to dry a few minutes. When dry, wipe with microfiber cloth to remove any remaining dust particles.

3. Apply Angelus Paint with paint brush, airbrush (at least 0.35mm nozzle) or sponge. Apply 3-5 coats or until desired coverage has been reached. Less coats can be used for line work and detail work.

Make sure to leave to dry 15-30 minutes between layers.

4. Allow to dry for at least 24 hours before allowing paint to bend or flex. Be careful of flying lint or debris getting on the shoe to avoid imperfections. Longer curing time ensures better durability.

5. To add extra protection or customize the finish, apply Angelus 4-Coat Clear Coat in Flat, Satin, Glossy, or Matte. Use 1-2 layers for the best results. 1-2 layers on top.

PAINTING CANVAS/DENIM - SHOES, CLOTHING, AND MORE

1. Prep by cleaning the surface with a cleaning product like our Angelus Easy Cleaner Kit. It is necessary to get out all the oils and dirt that may be sitting in or on the canvas. 

2. Make sure there is adequate dry time and that you wipe off and get all the cleaner out.

3. (Optional) If you want to make the paint soak in and not be as rubbery textured on canvas we suggest using our product 2-Soft mixed with our paint. You can paint Angelus paint directly on canvas without it but it just will feel more like a screen print then part of the shoe. When using 2-Soft you must heat set.

4. Paint with 3-5 light layers of Angelus Paint. Make sure to leave to dry 15-30 minutes between layers.

5. Leave to dry. 

(Optional) No additional protection is really needed as the paint has soaked into the canvas. If you want to change the sheen to a matte or glossy look instead we do suggest our 4-Coat Clear Coat.

Amazing paint

This paint is amazing! It pops right off the black. I did use a white base coat but I don’t know if it was necessary, it’s so opaque. My paint job is questionable but this paint is the real deal!

It was darker than advertised

I ordered gift box blue and when I got it, it did not look like gift box blue. Gift box blue is a lighter shade of blue and what I got was darker in color. It looked nothing like what was advertised.

Smooth and vibrant :D

I customized my white skates using fine grit sand paper, Angelus deglazer and cleaner solution, and this paint.So smooth and easy to work with. I was generous rubbing each side with the deglaze leather preparer solution, (not drippy but saturated) and the paint was a dream. You can mix this leather paint and apply layers just like acrylic.It was so much fun I wish I had more projects. One bottle got me three complete coats on each skate!

Gift Box Blue - Tropical Twist Mid Custom

If you're looking for a color to do a Tiffany custom, whether it be a Dunk or Jordan, this is the perfect color. The Gift Box Blue paint was a perfect match to the back panels of the AJ1 Tropical Twist Mid, which made this custom go a lot more smooth.

So fresh

You like those Tiffany Air Force ones? Well grab you an all white pair put a simple coat on the back Tavern, the swoosh and there you go it’s really just so simple that I don’t understand why more people are not taking advantage. Enjoy, without spending Tiffany money and you’re welcome.
