Hi, will it leave a black pattern whenever used on leather? or does it just carve ?so that i can fill the pattern with my choice of leather paint.

Hi. I've never used it on leather and I don't have any that I could test it out on. I would suspect that it would leave dark scorch marks as it burns, similar to what it does in wood. I don't know how well you could paint over the scorched detents. Sorry.

Don't have it put up to the highest temperature setting and you should be fine, test it out on a bit of scrap leather first so that you can gain a sense for what the pen is going to do.

Since many leather-bound books are bound with leather that has been dyed or treated by some form of preservative (old or new), I would NOT use this product on my books, as it will react with most treated/dyed leathers resulting in a substantial degree of darkening or mottling. I used it on a few undyed knife sheaths with no problem, but they were neither old nor dyed. I would ask a librarian or book dearer, who may readily have an answer or at least be able to direct you to someone with more reliable advice.

It will darken the leather somewhat!But it will also water proof and seal the leather.I use it to seal and protect the stitching on my boots and so far it's worked all winter with just one coat

I have black leather seats in my car but I have not noticed the backing sticking to the leather. My husband has sand colored seats in his truck so I will keep an eye out and post back if I notice any issues.

I purchsed the product for use on dark brown leather, and noticed no difference in tone. I also tried it on an old baseball glove which, I believe, is natural cowhide and possibly similar in aniline leather in being porous. Again...no color change. Even so, I'd recommend a little test application in a spot that doesn't show, just to be sure of the result.

Hi, I didn't apply leather finish after dying my shoes. I watched a YouTube video and a lady dyed some rather worn shoes with a gorgeous orangish/rust dye. They turned out fabulously, and she dyed SUEDE shoes! That is what I did, only black and newish shoes. She said hers were suede, and it worked great. The package says not to dye suede, but I did anyway. I am not sorry! The color is fabulous and I just brushed them with a soft brush after they were dry. I am not doing anything else to them - mostly because they look good and they are suede. I would suggest reading the package. I don't remember afterwards applications. Sorry!

Never tried on leather. It stripped off paint from a plastic moulding; seems to be very stong. Try on a small part first.

Yes you can use this on leather very easily. Remember to avoid from excessive pressure for branding the leather. That prevents from burning a hole into the leather you want to use. Good luck and have fun.

Yes. If the leather is shiny and textured it will be perfect, think croc print or similar. If the leather is suede then this will darken the suede a bit.

Leather new worked great for me on a red fake leather chair. I had some puncture areas from keys in the pockets, some tears, etc. Just need to be sure you get the area tightly closed when you put the repair compounds on. I also had a tan chair in the basement.....no tears, just worn areas that I put the coloring on...looks great now.

Hi Chris, i'm sure it is going to stick in leather, but don't know for how long, I've used it only on my handgun and has not backed off one bit and i have it for like 2 months using it every single day, I think in leather can work depending on the use you're going to give, if it is a hard leather it can work. I hope my information help you in any way. Best Regards

A black smooth leather sheath comes with this knife. I'm sorry, but I don't understand why you would buy a knife solely based on the color of the sheath. Why don't you just buy a blinking brown sheath dude? Good Lord!

I painted mine with geometric patterns to match our grandsons playroom . I did not do anything before I painted. I put on a dealer after I was done to make sure the paint did not get worn off. I have have it this way for over 6 months and no problems so far and it looks great!!

I got black and it matches my leather couch perfectly. It worked very well on my couch, and as a matter of fact I bought two and would buy again.

I use the Bick 5 on my leather furniture and it has not changed the color of my furniture or harmed the leather in any way. Maybe do a follow up question with the person that told you know and find out why they are saying no.

My advice for what it is worth: Since my fiasco with Black Jacket (it kept coming off the leather and staining my clothing, chairs, etc.), I have learned quite a bit about various types of leather and leather jackets. My suggestion would be to try Pecard's leather conditioning on a small area that is not visible and see if it helps. The Pecard's might temporarily darken the leather a little but it eventually should return to normal. If you use Pecard's, follow the directions -- you are supposed to let it soak into the leather for at least 24 hours, if I recall correctly. If the black stuff is coming off the jacket now (try scraping a fingernail across it), don't use anything. Instead, bring it to a professional leather cleaners and they probably will have to clean it before you do any kind of treatment. For further research, check a web site forum called the "Fedora Lounge." In the section on outwear, they have a lot of information about leather jacket issues. Hope this helps. Good luck.

I do not know if it changes the color or not. So far I have only used it on dark leather.
