COLOURLOCK GLD Solvent Cleaner ND,

For light-coloured smooth leathers or artificial leathers, discolouration can occur from items like jeans, belts, bags (both leather and fabrics), or pens. These stains are common on furniture and vehicle upholstery. If not promptly cleaned, the dyes can penetrate the surface and become impossible to remove with regular cleaners. The GLD solvent ND can be used to attempt the removal of such stains when gentler cleaners have failed.

Areas of application:

• Automotive leather interiors: Removing stubborn dye transfer and discolouration from light-coloured leather seats, bolsters, armrests and other pigmented leather surfaces.
• Leather furniture and upholstery: Treating dye transfer from jeans, clothing, cushions and other materials on light-coloured sofas, chairs and upholstered surfaces.
• Artificial leather and vinyl: Attempting to remove transferred dyes and stubborn discolouration from compatible synthetic upholstery, with particular care due to variations in surface coatings.
• Dye transfer from clothing and accessories: Treating stains caused by denim jeans, belts, handbags, clothing and other dyed materials that come into regular contact with leather.
• Stubborn stains resistant to conventional cleaners: Attempting to remove surface discolouration that cannot be eliminated using COLOURLOCK Strong Cleaner or Cleaner for Artificial Leather.
• Preparation for colour restoration: Reducing stubborn dye contamination before carrying out colour correction or recolouring with COLOURLOCK Leather Fresh, where necessary.

Important: GLD ND is an acidic solvent-based product and must be used with caution. It has a dissolving effect and can strip pigment layers if not applied gently and carefully. After use, the surface must always be neutralised using COLOURLOCK Strong Cleaner to stabilise the pH and prevent ongoing surface reaction. GLD ND should only be used precautionary and by users who understand the risks of pigment removal.

Typically, 250ml of GLD ND is sufficient as it is a specialised cleaner with a dissolving effect. For experienced users requiring larger quantities, the litre of GLD ND is recommended.
