ICAPGRADE P4<\/strong> is an oil-wax based polishable preground<\/strong> formulated to meet the needs of correction and smoothness of natural leathers, with particular effectiveness on full grain, snuffed leathers or leathers with small surface imperfections<\/strong>. Due to its oleo-waxy nature and amphoteric (cationic\/anionic)<\/strong> charge, this preground is also suitable for inclusion in cationic blends<\/strong> within traditional production cycles. <\/p>\n\n

Polishable pregrounds are key products in the finishing of leathers intended for uses where surface uniformity and the absence of visual defects are crucial: they allow porosity, small grain marks and irregularities to be leveled<\/strong>, improving the flatness of the substrate and providing an optimal base for subsequent coats of color or topcoat.<\/p>\n\n

Key features and benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Excellent<\/strong> filling power<\/strong>: fills in small imperfections and porosity, making the surface smooth and even<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Good masking power<\/strong>: improves the overall appearance of the leather before the finishing steps<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Compatible with cationic systems<\/strong> due to amphoteric charge<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Ideal for nappa and natural leathers<\/strong>: enhances the authentic essence of the leather without compromising breathability<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Ease of application<\/strong> by roller or spray, allowing uniform, controlled layers<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Recommended 12-hour rest<\/strong> before felting to promote film stabilization and optimize the grouting effect<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
