Angelus Salmon is a technical acrylic coating specifically engineered for high-flexibility applications on leather, vinyl, and canvas. This professional-grade, water-based formula is designed to integrate with the material's fibers, ensuring the soft, coral-toned pink pigment remains pliable even in high-stress areas like the toe box and side panels. By creating a permanent bond rather than a thick surface layer, it effectively eliminates the risks of cracking or peeling during constant mechanical movement.

To ensure a factory-standard finish, the surface must be prepared with a deglazer to remove original topcoats and oils. Applying the paint in light, incremental layers allows for a self-leveling, smooth appearance that is resistant to brush marks. Once the 24-hour curing cycle is complete, the Salmon finish becomes an industrial-strength, waterproof barrier that provides long-term resistance against abrasive scuffs and environmental color fading.

  • Formula: Water-based, high-flexibility acrylic polymer optimized for permanent adhesion on footwear.

  • Application: Suitable for use with brushes, sponges, or airbrushes (thinning with 2-Thin is required for airbrush applications).

  • Coverage: High-density salmon pigment provides exceptional opacity; ideal for vibrant summer-themed customs or restoring uniquely toned leather goods.

  • Durability: Formulated for maximum resistance to water penetration, scuffing, and UV wear.

  • Sizes: Available in 1 oz and 4 oz containers to support both individual projects and shop-level work.

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.

Thank You!

I really enjoyed the helpful information & tips on the Angelus site…I purchased several colors…base prep and a top coat to paint a new design on some Croc brand platform sandals.

The prep solution completely removed the original tree/camouflage design that was on the shoes and the colors and texture of the paint worked well…i blended the colors i purchased to have more flexibility with shades and colors as well.

Lastly the top coat finish i used resulted in a very finished look…people actual tell me that the shoes look like i bought them with the unique designs i painted on with the top coat finish.

Thank You!

Other uses for Angelus Paints other than sneakers

I love your paints, but I don't understand why the only shoes painted on your site are sneakers. They are beautiful but painting my boots and shoes to match my clothes is much more useful for me & you should hear the really good coments when everything matches exactly. I just used the salmon paint on a pair of boots last week and I think I had more people stop me to see where I got boots in that color then any of my other painted shoes and boots. I couldn't live if everything didn't go together. Thank you so much Antgelus for making my life match. PS: I may be just a little OCD

Hello Nelda, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We appreciate your support. The majority of our customers do focus on sneaker customization; however, we do have an Instagram page: @angelusstyles, where it features customs in everything else but shoes. You should definitely check it out!If you have any more questions or comments, feel free to contact us at Info@angelusdirect.com thank you

is this color the same as crimson tint??

Angelus Direct

No, it is not the exact. You need to add some Flat white to that. Not too much. Maybe also a little duller.
