Our Angelus Navy Blue Low VOC & Eco-friendly Leather Restoration Dye is the perfect way to quickly and easily bring new life to your leathers without sacrificing quality. With its permanent color, rich navy hue, and vibrant finish, you’ll be surprised at how easy it is to transform your favorite leathers! Ship worldwide and perfect for use on smooth leathers, our leather dye is sure to last for years!

Dyeing leather is different from painting—it soaks into the material rather than sitting on top like paint. The final color depends on the base color of the leather, so a white surface dyed with red will turn pink, not true red. Angelus Leather Dyes are designed to enhance and transform brown leather rather than lighten it. Keep this in mind when selecting your dye color.

DYEING SMOOTH LEATHER WITH ANGELUS LEATHER DYE

1. Prep by wiping down leather with leather preparer using our applicators, cotton balls, or a rag.

2. Wait for leather to dry a few minutes. Wipe down with microfiber towel to remove all lint.

3. Using Wool Daubers (One is supplied with each dye) soak the dye on the dauber.

4. Be careful of what you are dyeing. If you are dyeing a large spot use the dauber fully soaked. If you are doing a smaller section a paint brush or much less dye on the dauber may be required. 

5. Make sure to soak the article you are dyeing. Dye works by soaking into the item you are dyeing. It does not act like paint. Feel free to soak and evenly rub across to make sure all is even. 

6. Leave to dry. You may see a tint, bronzing, or any different finish. Do not panic! This is just residual dye on the surface.

7. (Optional) Wipe with a microfiber towel to remove excess dye pigment. If there is still a sheen or tint use some alcohol on said microfiber and wipe down quickly. Do not let the alcohol sit on the item or else you risk lifting some of the dye and discoloring. Once done the tint should disappear and it will just be the color. 

8. If you wish to dye the item more of the color complete steps 5-7 again. 

9. If you are looking to protect and nourish the leather we suggest using Angelus Leather Balm or Neutral Angelus Shoe Polish. If you do not want the shine of the shoe polish just lightly buff versus a full buff to shine. If you dyed the article a black or brown we would suggest even buffing with a colored shoe polish or Lustre Cream

Low VOC Dyes are based on our tried and true Leather Dye formula, but they are formulated to be non-flammable, making it so we can ship them worldwide.

  • Low in Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
  • Compliant with California's stringent chemical regulations
  • Non-flammable, enhancing user safety and making it easy to ship worldwide
  • Extended working time, allowing for greater flexibility and precision during use
  • Great absorption rate, ensuring a deep, even color and reduced waste

In short, they are the same great Leather Dyes that you are used to, but can ship anywhere, aren't flammable, and dry a bit slower due to the absence of alcohol. You won't be disappointed with them!

Dyes takes the color of what is under them. So if you dye something white with red it will turn pink. It mixes with it. Paint sits on the surface and grabs on. You can cover anything with paint. Our paint is water based while our dyes are alcohol based.

Yes, all Angelus Dyes are mixable! Angelus Leather Dyes can be mixed with other Angelus Leather Dyes, and the same for Angelus Suede Dyes. Mixing dyes to acheive specific colors is harder than mixing paints and does require testing. (Do not mix Suede Dyes and Leather Dyes together.)

Keep in mind that this is considered a professional product. You may need to perform many tests before applying it to your final piece.

I love this color on my boots! I wanted them to be darker and found this dye on Amazon. It works great and I also uses it on some other shoes without any problems. I did learn that I needed to wear long gloves when dying boots 😂. The dye wears off of your skin in a few days.

Super pigmented

I bought this leather dye to cover a high end leather ottoman I found on the curb. The thing retails for $2100, I was not going to pass on it. But it had a lot of stains. After thoroughly washing it I used the navy blue dye to match my navy blue bedroom. One bottle was plenty, I had bought two just in case. I only needed one half bottle. The smell is not horrible. However, it is way darker than navy blue it came out almost black so I am a bit disappointed with that. Regardless, it completely covered the red and the stains and now I have a brand new ottoman. The pictures are with just one coat and before I reconditioned the leather.

Dark navy blue color

Worked perfectly as expected! Dyed some beat up old pink cowboy boots, turned out beautiful! Maybe a little darker than expected.

Good Stuff!

The dye goes on easy and doesn’t leave any haze to buff off as I’ve found with other brands. In the sun the blue color is brilliant. Just for fun I dyed the white stitching on my boots.

These look like a factory job! Looks great!!

Guitar Top Staining

These leather dyes are awesome for staining wood. I have done several guitar tops using both regular and low-VOC Angelus dyes and the colour saturation and ability to blend are great.

Shoes like new!

I used this on a pair of leather shoes whose toes were scraped. The dye covered the scraped area and the shoes looked great. Easy to use. Dryer quickly - don’t get on the sole.

Easy to Use

This went on well, dried quickly and maintained its depth of color after dried. The applicator was surprisingly useful (I would still wear gloves) and the opacity of the dye wasn’t too bad. Coverage was a little streaky.I dyed a hot pink jacket and it took the whole bottle to do 3/4 of a first coat. It looks to me like it might need 3 coats to reach full coverage.Good product, but have realistic expectations for coverage - it’s not a miracle worker or a $400 professional dye bath.

Very very dark navy

This worked very well to dye a pair of leather sandals, but the color is so dark blue it almost looks black. Not so happy about that.
