Repairing Burns on Leather
- 1). Use the edge or corner of the 100-grit sanding block to rub against the burn mark. Go slowly and delicately to remove the surface of the burn.
- 2). Grate the edge of a razorblade against the leather to remove any loose pills or graininess from sanding.
- 3). Apply a light coat of a liquid leather product from a leather repair kit over the burn with a wooden tongue depressor. Select a grain paper that matches the grain of your leather, and press it against the liquid leather patch.
- 4). Turn on a hair dryer over high heat, and blow it against the grain paper for at least a minute. Peel off the grain paper, and you'll find the burn mark perfectly covered. Repeat this process with all the burns on your leather product.
