Sticky Art Leather Futura
Wedding Album Covers
from years ago

If you've arrived here, you are probably investigating how to fix your sticky Art Leather Futura wedding album cover which is probably from the 1980's or so. Most likely, your pages and photos are fine, but your cover is not. You want to know how to solve the issue.

Question: How can I fix it or remove the stickiness?
Answer: You can't. You will not be able to permanently solve the stickiness.

Question: Why is it sticky?
Answer: Your album cover is not genuine leather, but rather a synthetic material called Aristohyde which was very popular years ago. The material is now breaking down over the years. Yes, if you stored it in the heat or humidity, that may have accelerated the process, but it may have done it anyway.

Question: How do I prevent a repeat?
Answer: Select a genuine leather on your replacement cover.

Question: Is there a warranty?
Answer: There was, but Art Leather is no longer producing albums, so there are no more warranties or discounts for replacements.

Question: What do I do now?
Answer: The only solution is to replace the cover. Although Art Leather is no longer producing albums, another company is manufacturing covers to hold Art Leather's pages, so we can help you with a replacement.

Please use care in following the next instructions to ensure you receive a cover that fits your pages.
