I got all excited that Angelus, the LA-area wax, polish, and dye maker, set up their own online retail site. And then I immediately ran into the restrictions that prohibit them from shipping their No. 500 solvent-based leather dyes to California addresses.
Meanwhile, predictably, there’s a seller on Amazon that will sell them to me with two-day shipping. Fulfilling through Prime. For twice the price.
I reached out to Angelus for the lowdown. They got back to me right away.
My main takeaway points:
-
They can’t ship the 3-ounce “retail-size” bottles to California addresses. Physical retail stores in California aren’t supposed to sell them, either. But Angelus can sell pints and quarts.
-
Many colors are out of stock as pints and quarts on their website, but you can contact them directly about particular colors to ship.
-
They’ve started offering some colors in low-VOC formulations that they can ship even in smaller bottles, but only a few.
-
They offer 3-ounce bottles for about $5 and pints for about $15.
