The Foundation of Professional Leather Repair
Leather World Base Coat is a high-solids foundation coating designed to support professional leather repair and recoloring workflows.
With excellent flexibility and adhesion, it fills minor scratches, scuffs, and surface imperfections while building a uniform base for color.
Two Ways to Use Base Coat
1. As a Primer Coat
When used as a primer, Base Coat prepares raw, repaired, or heavily sanded leather so color coats build faster and more evenly.
- Reduces the number of dye or color coats required
- Improves adhesion and color uniformity
- Ideal for bare hide and major repair areas
When used as a Primer Coat, Base Coat must be followed by a Leather Dye Colorant and a Top Coat.
2. As a Color Base Coat (2-Step System)
Base Coat can also function as a color base in a two-step system.
In this use, it may be lightly tinted to help build color coverage before finishing.
- Tintable up to 20% pigment (by volume)
- Acts as the color-carrying base layer
- Improves coverage efficiency on problem areas
When used as a Color Coat, Base Coat must receive a Top Coat after drying.
