Mimosa FS is not recommended for pit tanning. However, it is ideal for drum tanning of full vegetable tanned leathers where it gives a light colour and pleasant feel. Up to 20% Mimosa FS can be used for full veg strap, case or bag leathers. Mimosa FS can also be used in conjunction with other Mimosa products such as Mimosa WS, Mimosa ME and Mimosa RG.
For retannage of chrome leather between 5% and 10% Mimosa FS is recommended.
For heavy vegetable retannage on chrome leather up to 15% Mimosa FS is recommended.
