Product Information

Next, while you are waiting for the shoes to dry you can mix the acrylic paint with a fabric medium. This blend will help the paint adhere to the shoe and be a little bit more flexible. When the paint is ready and the shoes are dry you can start painting. Look for a shoe protector that offers effective water and stain resistance for suede shoes. Suede is more susceptible to water damage and staining compared to smooth leather, so a reliable protector should create a protective barrier to repel water and prevent stains from setting in. Application Most suede dyes come with an applicator but it is not very effective in my experience. I prefer using my stippling brush since it helps me get the dye to absorb well in the suede. As far as spray paint goes, you should buy the can that is made specifically to cover suede or fabric materials. The metal covering spray paints most likely will not work. They are designed to bond with metal, not fabric. The technique is like painting a wall or a ceiling. Just make sure to be careful and use the right materials. How do You Paint Faux Suede?

Once you have dyed your shoes in a dark shade, it will not be possible to go to a lighter color later. This is why I recommend that you choose from a range of pastels, tans and nudes. Step 3: Preparing the Shoes Dip your brush into the dye and using circular motions, carefully rub the dye into the surface of the shoe. Start from larger areas and then move on to smaller ones. How to use it: Shake the bottle well and spray the solution onto clean shoes from around 20cm away.

Then make sure to not confuse dyeing with painting as those two words are often used interchangeably. When it comes to painting you can do a dry sponge application using a pressed powder pigment. Even if you get some dye on the sole during the process, just use a paper towel to clean it off and it will not leave a stain since suede dye only clings permanently to fabric. It is always best to go with a darker color over a lighter one on the shoe. That way you know the original color will be hidden and not show through when you are finished painting.However, it is always good to take precautions beforehand. Make sure you remove any accessories such as laces that you do not wish to dye. Step 4: Dyeing the Suede Shoes Stuff some newspapers inside your shoes to prevent any stray dye from getting on the inside by mistake. Also use a painter’s tape or masking tape to cover any areas you don’t want to dye such as elastic bands, zippers or the sole.

Hold can vertically and apply a thin layer from a distance of about 20-30 cm in a slow sweeping actionThe method of dying suede boots can come in handy not only when you are looking to fix discoloration but also, simply if you want to change up your old boots and give them a fresh feel. You can try real fabric paints to see of those alternatives will adhere to suede but you may have the same problem with this option as you would using regular paint. To make the paint last, you need to make sure the colors soak down and bond properly with the suede surface and interior. The first thing you need to do is to make sure the shoes that you want to dye are clean. If there are any stains on them, try to get those out first.
