What is HD Solvent and why choose it?

KiurLab HD Solvent is a powerful solvent specifically formulated to dissolve and remove existing topcoat layers as well as old colour from closed-pore leather surfaces. The product prepares the substrate for the next step in the restoration process – recolouring and surface treatment within the PRO LEATHER system.

What sets HD Solvent apart is the combination of effective action on old and stubborn coatings and the clear visual feedback during the process. When the colour transfer to the cloth diminishes and the surface begins to feel slightly tacky, this is a sign that the solvent has done its work and the surface is ready for the next step.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does KiurLab HD Solvent work for removing old topcoat from full-grain leather car seats?

Yes, KiurLab HD Solvent is developed specifically to dissolve and remove topcoat as well as old colour from closed-pore leather surfaces – including full-grain leather in car seats. Apply a small amount of HD Solvent to a soft cloth and work the product into the surface until visible colour transfer occurs. Stop when the surface begins to feel slightly tacky, then allow the surface to dry out before proceeding to the next step in the KiurLab PRO LEATHER system. Always perform a test on a concealed area before treating the entire surface.

What volume does KiurLab HD Solvent come in and how much surface area does it cover?

KiurLab HD Solvent is supplied in a 1 litre container. The exact coverage depends on the condition of the leather surface, the thickness of the existing topcoat, and the number of treatment passes required. As the product is used in relatively small amounts per application – applied to a cloth rather than directly to the surface – 1 litre is sufficient for a number of restoration projects in a professional setting. We recommend always ensuring sufficient product is available before commencing a full restoration project.

What sets KiurLab HD Solvent apart from other leather solvents on the market?

KiurLab HD Solvent is part of the cohesive PRO LEATHER system from KiurLab, meaning the product is optimised to work in conjunction with the other steps in the system – including recolouring and surface treatment. Unlike generic solvents, HD Solvent provides clear visual feedback via colour transfer to the cloth, making it easier to judge when the surface is sufficiently prepared. The product is developed for professional use and is well suited to detailing studios and reconditioning workshops operating to OEM or premium standard.
