How To Prevent White Spots When Dying

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have dyed my leather with USMC Black. I used NF oil first, then dip dyed with the usmc black, then acrylic resolene that was cut 50-50 with water.... But my black leather pieces are getting these white spots on them... spot of white that are from 1" to 2" in diameter or so, and composed of tiny little white dots. ...I'm not sure what I've done wrong. It will wipe off, but it comes back! I'm so frustrated.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what may have caused this or how to go about fixing it? I've never seen this before.

Cheers

Is the resolene pooling, going on too heavy?

If the dye went on well then it's most likely the resolene.

I only put it on really thin.. but maybe even that was too thick?

I make one swipe, not more than two really light coats at one time, do this a few times if needed.

Spraying is best if you have a gun.
