How does lighting impact your leather recoloring work?

Have you experienced your exact mixed color change to another even though you do nothing with it?

If you experience it, that might be a workshop lighting problem. Sometimes when we think that we got the right color and we painted the bag. Afterward, we carried the bag outside and realized that the color was so weird.

Herein, what is the best lighting for working with the color? Daylight is the best! then what's "Daylight" means?


The workshop should have a big window that allows daylight to come through. The daylight should mean the natural light when the sky is blue.

When the sky turns red, orange, grey, or dark blue the natural light with come from the different shades of the sky is not appropriate for mixing the color because the light at that time will make the wrong color.


Color match is always a problem with the bag spa shop, that's why we often see the before & after photos from a variety of color changes to black because black is not needed a color matching. However, if we can keep the same color it looks more professional don't you think? If you would like to work in the nighttime or anytime you have a mood to do the recoloring work and also you have enough budget, you could purchase the "Inspector light" which mimics the natural sunlight. This kind of lamp will allow you to work anytime you want and of cause, the quality one, it quite costly.


No matter how expensive it is, if you can earn more than its cost it is called an "investing".
