Tarrago Sneakers Paint is an acrylic paint with a water-based formula specially formulated to change the color, customize or restore your smooth leather, synthetic leather or canvas sneakers.
Thanks to its formulation, with photochromatic properties, these colors have a reversible effect. In a situation without direct sunlight the paint will be almost transparent, but as soon as it comes into contact with sunlight or UV light, it will turn into the color applied.
After different studies in our laboratory we can conclude that it has a resistance to wet/dry friction and flexions preventing the dye from cracking and keeping the customize in perfect conditions.
- It has a high endurance and a perfect finish.
- The box contains a 25ml. / 0.9 fl. oz. color bottle, a paint brush, an applicator sponge and a dossing cap.
