Description
The 20 Litre MR MAC Leathercraft Antique Finish is an economical bulk leather colouring and antiquing formula for raw, natural and vegetable-tanned leather. It adds rich colour while highlighting the recessed areas of carved, tooled and stamped patterns, producing greater depth, definition and contrast.
Its water-soluble formula works into the lower areas of decorative leatherwork. When the excess finish is wiped from the raised surfaces, more colour remains within the recessed details, creating a traditional antiqued appearance.
The generous 20 litre container is ideal for professional leatherworkers, saddlers, manufacturers, training facilities and busy workshops completing large projects or regular production work. It can be used on belts, wallets, bags, cases, saddlery, horse tack, knife sheaths, holsters and many other vegetable-tanned leather projects.

Why Choose MR MAC Leathercraft Antique Finish?
This leather antique finish adds colour to natural leather while helping decorative patterns stand out. The finish remains darker in recessed sections, giving carved and stamped designs greater definition and a professional antiqued effect.
Its water-soluble formula is straightforward to apply, and additional coats can be used to build the required colour and contrast. The 20 litre bulk size offers an economical solution for leatherworkers and businesses that regularly treat large quantities of leather.
MR MAC Leathercraft Antique Finish contains a built-in lacquer and sealer, so an additional sealer is generally unnecessary. MR MAC Seal-n-Shine may be applied afterwards when a glossier final appearance is desired.
How to Apply
Make sure the leather is clean, dry and free from dust, oil and surface contamination. Apply a generous, even coat using a sponge, soft cloth or suitable applicator. Work the product thoroughly into all carved, stamped and tooled recesses.
Just before the finish dries, wipe away the excess from the raised leather surfaces with a clean cloth. Allow the leather to dry before applying another coat. Repeat the process until the desired colour, depth and contrast have been achieved.
Always test the finish on a scrap piece or inconspicuous section of the same leather before treating the entire project. Leather type, preparation and application technique may affect the final colour.
