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.

Angelus paint

I recently placed an order for Angelus paints, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! The Dirt Yellow color is exactly what I was looking for to add some warmth and character to my project. The Royal Blue is vibrant and adds a pop of color that really stands out. The White and Black paints are perfect for adding contrast and detailing.The quality of these paints is exceptional; they go on smoothly and evenly, with rich pigmentation that ensures great coverage. Whether I’m customizing sneakers, accessories, or other items, Angelus paints never disappoint. Plus, the fast shipping and excellent customer service make ordering a breeze.Overall, I highly recommend Angelus paints to anyone looking to unleash their creativity and bring their vision to life. They’ve certainly earned a permanent spot in my crafting arsenal!

DTRT Yellow was the perfect shade!

Always happy with my Angelus orders. I use them to customize ice hockey goalie leg pads. With proper prep and sealing, the paint works amazing and holds up to pucks and ice. Way more affordable than ordering custom pads every time my kid wants “new pads.”

Good paint, receipt mistake

Paint is great color and consistency. I was charged $5 for stickers that were listed as “free” (and I didn’t put in my car) though, so a bit frustrated about that. In general though I love Angelus and recommend to everyone.

Great quality

Great quality, goes on evenly and smoothly, and perfect color. I would have a very hard time mixing paints to achieve this tone, so it's perfect.

Do the right thing yellow

This is probably the most rich yellow I've used in any paint. It's not too bright or pale, when the regular yellow falls short

its cool but only for air brushing application

hard to hand brush. I think I will use it through air brush. this particular color needs a lot of coats but then cakes up and is visible. but still...cool color

Hey Kenneth, this color can be a little tough to apply. Hand brushing is definitely still an option, however you will need to apply in very THIN layers. It can be a little time consuming, but it'll get there! You can also use a base of a color of the like such as a Pale Yellow to help you reach that color a lot faster since it is a little more translucent than others. Let us know if you need help with anything else! info@angelusdirect.com

DTRT Yellow

Doesn't really match with a lot, very bright color that's hard to use with other colors.

Hello Mark, DTRT Yellow can be a tough color to work with because it runs thin among some of our other paints such as purple, yellow, pastel colors and the entire neon collection. We recommend using a white base coat in order for the color to pop more.If you have any more questions or comments, feel free to contact us at Info@angelusdirect.com thank you

Always the Greatest....

I do restoration work, and these colors have never let me down; they have two qualities I can't do without--opacity and physical flexability! I have at least 3/4 of the colors, and will be getting the rest, bit by bit. Wish they made an OXBLOOD hue!

Do the Right Thing

I purchased this paint to repair the midsole on a pair of DTRT 3's that's been in rotation for about 8 years now, and they look like new! I would definitely recommend this product.
