If you have a fake Louis Vuitton leather strap item that you want to darken, there is a simple DIY guide that you can follow. All you need is fake Louis Vuitton leather strap, leather strap Studio Acrylic Paint (black), rags/paper towels, a paint brush/sponge (optional), acetone (or nail polish remover), and a dropcloth or something to protect the surface you are working on.
First, prepare the area by laying down a dropcloth and wiping down the item with soapy water to remove any dirt or grime before painting. If there are any areas you don’t want to accidentally paint, be sure to tape those sections off.
Next, add a small amount of leather strap paint to a plate or paint palette. Then add a few drops of water or acetone to the paint which will help thin it out even more (optional). Dip a rag, brush, or paper towel into the paint and then wipe it onto the surface of the item you want to darken. Wait 10-20 seconds and then wipe the entire surface with a clean rag or paper towels. This is where you may want to play around with it. You can wipe it off immediately, or wait even longer. The longer it sits, the darker it will be because it will absorb the paint more. Remember it’s easier to add more paint then take some away.
Wait 15 minutes for the section to dry, then repeat as necessary. If you accidentally add too much paint, you can remove it with acetone. Acetone can also remove some of the shininess in fake leather strap. However, it’s important to note that this method can be used on any fake Louis Vuitton leather strap item, but it’s at your own risk. It’s recommended to test on a small or inconspicuous area first.
While there are various methods to darken fake Louis Vuitton leather strap, using leather strap acrylic paint is an easy and effective way to achieve the desired look. By following this DIY guide, you can darken your fake Louis Vuitton leather strap item and give it a new and improved appearance.
