Benefits of Using Fiebing Acrylic Dye 2oz (60ml)

Long-Lasting and Fade-Resistant Colour

Fiebing’s acrylic formulation ensures that your leather items maintain their vibrancy and depth of colour over time. It is designed to withstand regular use, sunlight exposure, and environmental wear—ideal for outdoor or frequently used leather goods.

Retains Leather Flexibility

Unlike solvent-based dyes that can harden or crack the surface, this acrylic dye allows the leather to move naturally without losing texture. Your finished project remains soft, supple, and comfortable to use.

Easy Application for All Skill Levels

You don’t need to be a professional to use Fiebing’s dyes effectively. The 2oz (60ml) bottle provides enough dye for multiple small projects and allows easy control for beginners who want to experiment with colour mixing or layering.

Quick Drying and Low Odour

Perfect for indoor use, the water-based acrylic dye dries faster and has minimal odour compared to traditional solvent-based products. This makes it ideal for small workshops, home studios, or classrooms.

Compatible with Leather Finishes and Sealers

Once the dye dries, you can apply Fiebing’s Acrylic Resolene or Leather Sheen to add an extra layer of protection and shine. This combination enhances colour depth and increases the overall longevity of your project.

Versatile Use Across Leather Types

Whether you’re restoring an old saddle, customising a handbag, or crafting leather belts, this dye delivers a smooth and even coat on both natural and pre-dyed leather. It’s also great for hand-painted designs and airbrush effects.

Cost-Effective and Efficient

A little goes a long way. The concentrated formula of Fiebing’s Acrylic Dye means you can achieve full coverage with minimal product, reducing waste and providing exceptional value for every drop.
