Can I use dye on patent (plastic) leather?Updated a month ago

Yes, you can use dye on patent (plastic) leather, but there are a couple of essential considerations to remember. First, be prepared that the dye may significantly darken the original color of the patent leather. Secondly, the new dye will mix with the current color of the patent leather, potentially altering the final color outcome. For example, if you apply a red dye over white patent leather, the result could be pink rather than red. This blending effect is crucial when selecting your dye color to achieve the desired end color on your patent leather item.
