This Craft Sha Leathercraft Dye Quick Blue No.18 is a 500ml water based basic dye developed to colour leather quickly and evenly. Its designated Blue colour gives leatherworkers a clearly identified shade reference when planning a dyed surface or checking results on a test piece.
The dye may be applied without dilution or mixed with water until the preferred concentration is reached. A soft bristled brush or high density craft sponge can be used for application, while additional coats allow the colour to be developed after drying. It is also mixable with Craft Sha dyes for creating adjusted shades.

Begin by moistening the complete leather surface with clean water and a damp sponge. Prepare the Blue dye at the selected concentration, then spread it evenly with a brush while changing the stroke direction to avoid streaks. Let the leather dry completely before evaluating the shade or applying another coat. Test the mixture on an identical scrap first. When colouring is complete, apply 2 to 3 coats of Craft Sha Leather Lacquer to help prevent rubbing off or fading.
Because wet leather appears darker, wait until the surface is fully dry before deciding whether another layer is needed. Check the Blue mixture on matching scrap leather before treating the main piece so the dried result can be reviewed. Apply the compatible leather lacquer only after the dyed leather has dried
Please note that leather dyes will only yield desired results on untreated and uncoloured vegetable tanned leather. Application of dyes to already dyed/coloured leather will result in discolouration and darkening of the existing leather colour, and application of dyes on treated (e.g., waxed, lacquered, oiled, etc.) leather may result in inconsistent absorption.
