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.

In general Angelus paints have been a joy to work with. Colors such as military blue have been extremely close to the colors on some of the sneakers I've been painting and require the most minimal of adjusents to get the shade perfect. Ivebeen very happy with this product

Paint review

I was satisfied but the paint color was a darker then the original color but over all I was satisfied though I was wondering if the paint is suppose to shine as my paint didn’t .

Hey there! Many of the Collector's color do not shine because the original shoe does not shine as well. Thank you for your feedback!

5 star operation!

Thank you guys so much for the great products! I've been a sneaker collector for 35 years and have a bunch of sneaks that I'd like to experiment on...but I just did t know where, or how to start. Now with Angelus in my corner, the sky is the limit! Especially now during this stay at home Covid 19 problem, I have something to do now and it has to do with one of the things that I love most! Thanks and stay well, safe & sound!

I love how Anguelus makes these collectors editions. There's no more guessing if your colors match and this saves you time, and Ultimately money.

Millibar you blue paint mix

The paint is amazing don’t get me wrong but the color match is a little to dark than the original paint. Overall i was happy though.

Hello Austin, Thank you for your input. The color can appear lighter or darker only because the shoes' factory color changes depending on the year the shoe was made. If you have any more questions or comments, feel free to contact us at Info@angelusdirect.com thank you

Perfect match

Bought this item to repaint the midsole on my military blues, paint went on very smoothly and no streaks were left (could have been brush I used but regardless went on smooth). Color was also a perfect match and I'm very satisfied. Also shipped within 2 days, I also had other items shipped too. Will definitely be ordering more paint from angelus!
