Pennypower Report post Posted January 13, 2014 What kind of finish do I use on natural undyed leather that will not turn it dark, but keep the color the same? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwight Report post Posted January 14, 2014 Anything you can put in an air brush that doesn't have a compressor, . . . . ^ ^ ^ AND, . . . you knew someone was going to say that, . . . I just got there first. Seriously, . . . the nearest thing that will work is Resolene. It has a UV blocker, . . . that keeps sunlight from darkening the leather really bad, really quick. Unfortunately, . . . if it is veggie tan, . . . one of the properties of the product, . . . leave it out in light, . . . it will turn darker. Resolene will slow down the process, . . . but it won't stop it. And it does, itself, turn the leather just a tad darker, . . . but it is kind of a "pink" darker. I've done a few things with it like that, . . . but nothing of a great sort. Honestly, . . . I like it a bit darker. What are you trying to achieve?

Pennypower Report post Posted January 14, 2014 Hahahhaha!!! I deserved that ;-) I want to start tattooing on it. But then if it gets too dark it will affect the brilliance of the colors :-) I guess that's just the way it is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwight Report post Posted January 14, 2014 Are you using the leather to practice tattooing like for people? May God bless, Dwight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pennypower Report post Posted January 15, 2014 Not really. I just want to tattoo the leather I use to make bags, belts, jewelry etc. :-) I'd LOVE to tattoo people. I've always wanted to do it but haven't had a way to practice, and I don't have the guts to practice on people so, you never know, maybe I'll tattoo people one day but that's not the goal.
