iHeir-600 oil-based waterproofing agent provides excellent waterproofing, oil resistance, and anti-staining properties for leather and textiles

iHeir-600 oil-based waterproofing agent

Product Overview

iHeir-600 is a solvent-based fluorinated resin water repellent, primarily using ethyl acetate as the solvent. It is specifically designed to provide excellent water, oil, and stain resistance for leather and textiles. Suitable for garment leather, shoe upper leather, furniture leather, and various textile fabrics. After treatment, it imparts durable and effective protection to the material while completely preserving the natural characteristics of the leather—color, hand feel, and breathability remain unchanged.

Key Advantages

• High-Performance Protection: Imparts excellent water, oil, and stain resistance to materials. Liquid stains do not easily penetrate, making cleaning easy.

• Does Not Alter Original Properties: Treated leather retains its soft hand feel, natural color, and good breathability, with no stiffness or discoloration issues.

• Brand Authorization Support: Products treated with iHeir-600 that meet the corresponding quality requirements can apply to use the “iHeir” hang tag, helping to enhance brand image and market competitiveness.

• Broad Applicability: Suitable for various leathers (garment leather, shoe upper leather, furniture leather) and various textile fabrics.
