COLOURLOCK Nubuk Fresh for Aston Martin: Specialized Suede and Velour Leather Care

What is COLOURLOCK Nubuk Fresh for Aston Martin? — The specialized suede and nubuck care preserves the texture and color of rough natural leathers in Aston Martin interiors — specially developed for velour, nubuck, and Alcantara.

COLOURLOCK Nubuk Fresh (Aston Martin) is a special care dye for rough-textured suede, nubuck, and velour surfaces in Aston Martin leather interiors. Unlike Leather Colour or Leather Fresh, Nubuk Fresh is not intended for smooth pigmented leather — the formulation is designed to preserve the fine fiber structure of suede and prevent it from sticking together.

• Suede-specific – Specially formulated for rough-textured natural leathers.
• Preserves velour appearance – Excludes fiber sticking or smoothing.
• Original Aston Martin shades – Factory-accurate pigmentation for seamless care.

💡 Practical tip from Detailing1 workshop: With Aston Martin suede seats, we often see the same user error — customers treat suede with normal smooth leather care, which then causes the fibers to stick together and look flattened. With Nubuk Fresh (Aston Martin) and a fine brass brush in a 5-minute care routine, the typical velour look is preserved. After drying, brush lightly again — then the fibers will stand up velvety.

Dry brush, spray, work in fiber direction

Nubuk Fresh (Aston Martin) is evenly sprayed onto the suede from a distance of 20–30 cm with a spray bottle and worked into the fiber direction with a soft brush. After drying, brush again for the typical velour look.

Before care, the suede is dry brushed with a soft suede brush or fine brass brush to remove dust and ingrained dirt. Then, it is wet cleaned with a special suede cleaner and allowed to dry completely. Only then is Nubuk Fresh (Aston Martin) sprayed from a distance of 20–30 cm — no puddling, distribute immediately.

The color is worked in with a soft suede brush or fine brass brush in the direction of the fibers until the pigmentation is evenly distributed. After 30–45 minutes of drying, the leather is lightly brushed again so that the fibers stand up and the typical velvety-matte velour look is created. A 250 ml bottle is sufficient for about 4–5 care applications on mid-range vehicles with Alcantara steering wheels and suede seats.

Suede and velour yes, smooth leather no

Nubuk Fresh (Aston Martin) is exclusively for rough-textured natural leathers — suede, nubuck, velour, and Alcantara. Pigmented Aston Martin smooth leathers are treated with Leather Colour or Leather Fresh.

The special carrier solution with finely pigmented dyes combines with the rough fiber structure without sticking or weighing it down. On smooth pigmented leather, Nubuk Fresh would adhere unevenly due to the lack of the typical fiber structure — the care would appear patchy rather than even. On aniline leather, the fiber would not be sufficiently protected; aniline-specific COLOURLOCK lines are needed here.

If the Aston Martin vehicle has real suede seats, an Alcantara steering wheel, or velour door panels, Nubuk Fresh is the only correct care. If the interior consists of pigmented smooth leather, however, Leather Fresh (Aston Martin) or Leather Colour (Aston Martin) is used. In the case of mixed equipment (suede seats, smooth leather doors), both products are used in parallel.

For suede seats and Alcantara steering wheels

Nubuk Fresh (Aston Martin) is the care solution for owners and detailers with genuine suede or Alcantara components — applied every 6–12 months, it keeps the leather permanently velvety and colorfast.

Suede and velour leather get dirty faster than smooth leather and fade more in UV light. The care routine every 6–12 months prevents deep dirt penetration and protects the fibers from permanent fading. For heavily used vehicles or family cars, a 3-month cycle is also worthwhile. One application takes about 45 minutes per pair of seats, including brushing and drying — costs per application are around 6 euros in material costs.

For pigmented smooth leather components in the same vehicle, Leather Fresh (Aston Martin) is used — both products complement each other in the workflow. Those looking for a complete care bundle for suede and smooth leather can also check out the Leather Care Set (Aston Martin), which contains both components.

Care Instructions for Suede (Aston Martin):

Nubuk Fresh (Aston Martin) is exclusively for rough-textured natural leather – suede, nubuck, velour, and Alcantara. Pigmented Aston Martin smooth leathers are treated with Leather Colour or Leather Fresh.

The special carrier solution with finely pigmented dyes binds with the rough fiber structure without sticking or weighing it down. On smooth pigmented leather, Nubuk Fresh would adhere unevenly because the typical fiber structure is missing – the care would appear blotchy instead of even. On aniline leather, the fiber would not be sufficiently protected; here, aniline-specific COLOURLOCK lines are required.

If the Aston Martin vehicle has genuine suede seats, an Alcantara steering wheel, or velour door panels, Nubuk Fresh is the only correct care product. If the interior, on the other hand, consists of pigmented smooth leather, Leather Fresh (Aston Martin) or Leather Colour (Aston Martin) is used. In the case of mixed upholstery (suede seats, smooth leather doors), both products are used in parallel.
