KenE Report post Posted December 6, 2009 Hello, I want to invest in some 1/4" Kangaroo lace for my motorcycle seats, but I can't afford to get every color right now. Is it possible to buy a natural product and dye it with my project once laced? Also for some projects I might want to "dip" dye it a certain color to get a contrast with the color of the seat. I was looking at Springfield leather and they have some of the natural product, is this a good fit for what I'm doing? I've used some 1/8" lacing before on seats and it seems to tear at the glue seam, and also the 1/8" lacing takes forever to do because the spacing is so small to cover up your seam. Thanks, ~Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClayB Report post Posted December 6, 2009 I use kangaroo lace from Jim Downey and I dye it to get the colors I need. I would guess you could do the same with lace from Springfield Leather. Might want to ask them just to be sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to search their online store, the inventory code for the lacing is THOFLANATROL6 If you become a member, the discount is up to 33%, not sure if membership is available to overseas customers. cheers Edited December 7, 2009 by leatheroo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
