Overview
A 12-color starter kit of Angelus acrylic leather paint, a water-based, flexible paint made for customizing shoes, sneakers, bags, leather and canvas rather than for paper or wall art.
Because leather and sneaker canvas flex when worn, this paint is formulated to move with the material instead of cracking or flaking once cured, which is the main thing separating it from a general craft acrylic. It can be applied with a brush, sponge or airbrush, and the colors are made to be mixed for custom shades. Being water-based, cleanup is easier than with solvent-based leather dyes, though it still needs proper application to hold up on a surface that flexes as much as a shoe does.
- 12-color kit, 1 oz per bottle
- Flexible finish, resists cracking and peeling when applied properly
- Suited to shoes, leather, canvas and furniture
- Water-based for easy cleanup
Who it's for
Sneaker customizers and leather crafters wanting a starter set of mixable colors. Less suited to someone painting flat, non-flexing surfaces where a standard acrylic would do.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 12 colors in one kit, 1 oz each
- Flexes with leather and canvas without cracking when applied correctly
- Works by brush, sponge or airbrush
- Water-based, easier cleanup than solvent dyes
- Small 1 oz bottles per color
- Needs correct prep and application to avoid cracking
Performance notes
The flexible acrylic formula is built to bond to leather and canvas and stretch with the material's flex points, which is what keeps a properly applied coat from cracking or peeling where a rigid paint would fail.
