Transferred Dye Remover (No.15)

When your leather shows surface discolouration from dyes, try Transferred Dye Remover (No.15). It can help to clean fresh newspaper residue, clothing dye and denim colour transfer, food marks, hair dye, and fake tan from your valuable leather. Use it as soon as the staining appears for best results. Set-in stains may be permanent. 

  • Can clean or remove clothing, food and print dyes from leather surfaces
  • Easy to use; spray, agitate with a brush then wipe
  • Keep on hand to manage transferred dye stains as they happen and before they 'set-in'
  • Ideal for keeping white and light coloured leathers looking their best
  • Formulated for pigmented (painted/coated) leathers and can be used on other types
  • Strong; test in a hidden area first. 
  • Effectiveness is dependent on a number of variables including the leather type (finish), the porosity of the finish, the type of dye that created the stain, and how long the stain has been present. All of these factors determine whether the stain has 'set-in' or not. Set-in stains are usually premanent and cannot be removed. Recolouring over the stain may be a suitable remedy. 

Manage dye transfer

If you have white or light coloured furnishings or car seats, Transferred Dye Remover (No.15) can be a lifesaver, helping to manage those annoying blue-black shadowy tinge that come from navy and black clothing, scatter cushions and throw rugs. 

Easy to use

Spray onto the leather or pour onto a just damp microfibre cloth or spray onto the surface. Use a brush to agitate into the grain. Wipe with a clean dry cloth and repeat if needed. Avoid vigorous rubbing as this action can cause damage to the coatings.  

Keep this cleaner on hand

Some leather coatings absorb stains faster than others. When it comes to transferred dyes, time is of the essence. The sooner the problem is treated, the better; that is, before the stain has set in. Keep Dye Remover (No.15) on hand so that you can manage these types of stains as they happen.  

Indelible stains

When stains have set in, clean with Transferred Dye Remover (No.15) 2-3 times over 1 week. Any staining that is on the surface will be removed. Any staining that remains, has penetrated the coatings. Refinishing with new colour can help to conceal and refresh the look of the leather. 

 

 

This product is ideal for use on pigmented (painted/coated) leathers and may be used on other types.

1) Treat one area at a time. Spray onto the leather. Agitate with a scrubbing brush then wipe with a white microfibre cloth to remove residue. Allow drying

2) Repeat as needed

125ml: 3 or more handbags, or several pairs of shoes, or 1-3 seat cushions

250ml: 3 - 5 seat cushions and backrests

1L: 1 sofa or multiple treatments

Coverage estimates are broad as individual users have leather
that is in different condition, use products on different care schedules and use different amounts of product per treatment.

Porous topcoats absorb stains more readily than less porous topcoats. A less prorous topcoat will require less product per use.

Ideal for: Cleaning new or freshly transferred dye from the surface of pigmented (painted/coated) leathers. May be suitable for use on other types of leather. Test first.

Use with: A suitable leather cleaner, conditioner and protector.

Application schedule: Use when stains occur.

Application method: Apply by spray, gently agitate into the grain using a scrubbing brush then wipe. Repeat as needed.

Best accessories: A white microfibre cloth and scrubbing brush

Instructions: On the labels, Directions for Use tab, Tips and under the How To tab in main menu

Drying time: 30 mins or less.

Time before use: Wait until the leather feels dry; typically a few minutes. The amount of cleaning product used impacts drying time

Available in kits: No

Tips:

Prompt cleaning produces best results. If the stain has set in, it may be permanent and therefore, unremovable.

Use a white microfibre cloth so that you can see any removed dye residue

Leather protector, Protect (No.3) can help minimise transferred dye tinge

Never rub vigorously as this action can remove coatings (no matter what product (even water) you are using)

Note: leather finishes vary; some are more porous and absorbent than others. If the transferred dye has penetrated into the leather coatings, recolouring with leather paint (see Repair & Recolour Kit) can be helpful. In some instances, the dye may resurface or stain the new coatings in time. Where coatings are less porous and absorbent, prompt treatment with Dye Remover (No.15) can completely remove the unwanted dye

Test before use: Always test products in an inconspicuous area first. There are many makers of leather and leather coatings and whilst most are to standard, there may be some that are not. Do not use if coatings disturbance occurs. If you intend to recolour the leather, continue with use.

Storage: Lid on tight and away from direct UV light and heat (in a cool dark cupboard).

For pigmented (painted/coated) leathers:

After stain treatment and every 3 months:

1) Cleanse (No.1) to remove soiling, body oil and perspiration
2) Nourish (No.2) to moisturise and maintain suppleness
3) Protect (No.3) to protect from soiling, dye transfer, make cleaning easier and minimise UV damage

Available separately or in kits.

A damp cloth can be used between services.

Didn't immediately remove the stain from a tan-coloured leather sofa but then something happened :}

Used this spray several times throughout the day on the worst stained areas, scrubbed with soft scrubbing brush but did not see an immediate improvement but then applied cleaning vinegar and repeated the scrubbing and began to see the stain being picked up on the white bristles of the scrubbing brush. After the leather dried out overnight there was a definite improvement in the stained areas, so we will continue with this product + vinegar + scrubbing and see what happens

Doesn’t work waste of money if you have a stain

Hi Lisa,
We are sorry to learn the stain was not removable. Transferred Dye Remover will not work on set-in stains. It does work on freshly transferred dye that has not yet set-in. The effectiveness of this cleaner is dependant on the porosity of the coatings on the surface of the leather. Some are more porous than others. Those that are porous absorb the dye thereby forming a permanent stain. Less porous coatings do not absorb the transferred dye. For these leathers, Transferred Dye Remover works very well.

Hasn’t budged the dye like I had hoped it would, has slightly lightened it that’s all.

Hi Kerryn,
Thanks for trying Transferred Dye Remover. Stains are permanent once they have 'set-in'. Effectiveness is dependent on a number of variables including the leather type (finish), the porosity of the finish, the type of dye that created the stain, and how long the stain has been present. All of these factors determine whether the stain has 'set-in' or not. Time is an important factor when it comes to stain removal; some leathers absorb stains more quickly than others. The product can effectively remove dye stain before it is absorbed. Thereafter, it may lighten the stain but may not remove it completely.

Excellent

My husband has a leather laptop bag and from everyday use, his Jean’s colour rubbed off on the bag. After some years it started to look tacky. I cleaned it with the leather cleaner and so much dye came off. Naturally it’s impossible for the leather look brand new after years, but the result was amazing! The bag was restored to a beautiful patina. Would definitely recommend this product.
