pigment leather
A leather finished with materials containing
opaque pigments which obscure the grain pattern,
including any defects it may have. When a leather
is buffed very deeply in order to remove grain
defects, it is often necessary to apply large
amounts of pigment in the finish to obtain a
uniform appearance. An increase in the amount of
pigment used requires an increase in the amount of
binding material used, so as to prevent the
pigment from chalking and flaking off. See also:
