Backlining Cloth (Glue-Tex) with self adhesive backing

NEW product - Now with adhesive backing on one side, no need to purchase an additional leather glue

Those larger rips and holes in leather which are still repairable must be stabilised by backlining them with cloth. Cut the cloth into the required shape, slightly bigger than the hole on the leather and mark the centre with a felt tip pen or a small sticker. The marking helps you to recognize the centre and ensure consistent overlapping. Fix the centre with a needle and spread the edges evenly under the leather with a spatula, ensure that you insert the cloth with the adhesive side facing up towards the undersude of the leather. Then warm the surface with a heatgun or hairdryer. The heat will activate the adhesive, apply light pressure for a few minutes.

PLEASE NOTE: Damages which have a hole or leather missing will need to be filled with COLOURLOCK Liquid Leather and coloured using COLOURLOCK Leather Fresh dye.

Amount: 1 piece, approx. 15 x 25 cm / 6 x 10 inches
