French Dye 50ml Sapphire - NAVY BLUE 06

SAPHIR LEATHER DYE - NAVY BLUE

Saphir Teinture Française (French Dye) in Navy Blue is an extremely penetrating alcohol-based dye. It is designed to dye a light color into a darker one.

It can be used on smooth leathers as well as on suede, nubuck, or chamois leathers. Specially formulated for leathers with minimal porosity, Teinture Française penetrates even low-absorbency surfaces, where other dyes remain on the surface. It is the gold standard dye used by cobblers.

All colors in the range are miscible with each other, allowing you to create your own shades. If you are creating a mixture, be sure to prepare enough for the entire surface to be dyed.
To lighten a shade, you can use the lightening base (ref. WA326_00).
The color chart is provided for guidance only. The color obtained depends on the original shade and the nature of the leather.
A preliminary test on an inconspicuous area of the leather is recommended to verify the shade.

Usage tips :
- For best results on smooth leather, it is advisable to use Saphir leather stripper (ref. WA337) to open the pores of the leather.
- Protect your hands with gloves, then apply the Teinture Française using the applicator sponge. We recommend applying 2 thin coats to obtain a uniform and homogeneous shade.
- Allow to dry for 2 hours between each coat.
- To ensure optimal results after applying the dye, it is recommended to use a specific finishing product:
For your suede and nubuck leathers, use the Saphir Renovétine spray (ref. WA325).
For your smooth leathers in good condition, apply a Surfine shoe cream (ref. WA323) or a Canadian cream for leather goods or jackets (ref. WA327).
For your worn smooth leathers, apply Saphir Juvacuir (ref. WA069).
For your very worn smooth leathers, apply the Renovating Cream (ref. WA305).
