Saphir Tenax Leather Spray Paint – Beige Pink 150ml

Description

Saphir Tenax Leather Spray Paint – Beige Pink 150ml – a high-coverage spray paint for smooth leather

Sometimes you want to change the colour of a pair of shoes quickly and evenly, and that is exactly where this spray comes in. Saphir Tenax is a surface spray paint for smooth leather with genuinely strong covering power, so you can transform your shoes and boots or simply touch up worn areas.

This Beige Pink shade is lovely for refreshing soft, pale tones or giving a pair a whole new look. Because it sprays on rather than soaking in, you get a smooth, even coat far more quickly than with a penetrating dye, and the finish is resistant to water and rubbing.

A quick word of guidance from me: Tenax is made for smooth leather and synthetic materials, not for suede or nubuck. Keep it for your smooth-leather pieces and it will reward you with a clean, hard-wearing colour.

Why choose Saphir Tenax?

• Strong coverage. The high-pigment formula covers old colour and scuffs evenly, even when you are making a big colour change.
• Fast and even. Spraying lays down a smooth, consistent coat much faster than brushing on a liquid dye.
• Water and rub resistant. Once cured, the colour stands up to rain and everyday friction without flaking.
• Refresh or restyle. Perfect for touching up worn toes and heels or completely changing a shoe’s colour.
• Generous 150ml can. Plenty of paint to cover several pairs or larger leather items such as bags and jackets.
• Saphir quality. Made in France by one of the most respected names in leather care.

How to use Saphir Tenax

Spraying leather is straightforward when you take it steadily. This is the method I follow.

1. Clean the shoes well. Brush off dirt, then use a leather cleaner to strip old wax, polish and paint so you are working on a bare surface.
2. Let the leather dry completely and mask off soles, laces and any areas you want to keep paint-free.
3. Shake the can thoroughly and hold it around 20cm from the shoe.
4. Spray in light, even passes rather than one thick coat, letting each layer dry before adding the next.
5. Build up the colour gradually until you reach an even finish, then leave it to cure fully before wearing.

A tip from me

Thin coats are the secret. Several light passes always give a smoother, more durable finish than one heavy layer, which can run and take an age to dry. Take your time and let each coat set.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Tenax on suede or nubuck?

No. Tenax is designed for smooth leather and synthetic materials. For suede and nubuck you will need a dedicated suede dye or renovator spray.

Will the colour crack when I walk?

Not if it is applied correctly. Build the colour in thin coats onto clean, dry leather and it flexes with the shoe without cracking.

Do I need to seal it afterwards?

It is not essential, but a coat of neutral wax or cream once the paint has cured adds extra shine and protection.
