This leather has been contaminated through natural oils on the skin. This is an antique type leather which consists of 2 colours, a bright base colour usually followed by a black or a darker version of the base over the top to achieve the two tone effect. The oils from this persons head had caused the top colour to wear causing the base to show through. It wasn’t a case of just re applying the top colour, I firstly needed to decontaminate the area using extraction machines and our leather degreaser, only once the oils are fully removed can you apply the new colour. |
