the stain is a liquid that you would put on by either dipping, sponge, dauber, etc....I imagine if you thinned it enough you might be able to spray it.....I don't use it so I am not sure... the finish is a paste...........I use this one exclusively..........but not the black. The paste is less messy and easier to get a uniform color with it. JMHO Mike

Contact Cement Oops
mikesmith648 replied to cleanview's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I would try acetone on a cloth and see if it will remove the contact cement.......should work and try not to get any on the finish or it will remove that too. JMHO and FYI..........I was born in Amarillo!! -

Background Paint Color
mikesmith648 replied to cercyonis's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
The spider looks good. I would be concerned with a dark color that would make the legs harder to see. Just about any color would work as long as it is lighter than the legs..JMHO -

Help With My Sheridan Drawing For Purse
mikesmith648 replied to equiss's topic in Floral and Sheridan Carving
I recieved the pattern....I am trying to redraw it , but like Sylvia said, there is no "flow". Give me some time and I will see what I can do to change it so that there is a visible flow. The way it is now it is just looking pieced together. I will try to keep a similar layout and also add "flow" -

Black Belt With White Letters
mikesmith648 replied to swivel knife's topic in Historical Reenactment
white dye will work over vinagroon......as it will not bleed.....being that it is a light color over a dark color it may take several coats to cover .... but it will work...................................ask me how I know!! Vinegroon is a treatment that changes the leather chemically.....................it is not a dye!!! If you were going to use dye instead of vinegroon.....................disregard what I said and listen to the other guys because that is correct for dyed work -

New Knife Sheath
mikesmith648 replied to kitch2500's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Nice looking...how is it holding up? Horizontal looks nice but I would personally worry about the knife falling out if the leather stretched. Just a thought. Been thru Lubbock many times....next time maybe we can meet and have lunch! -

Leather Business Cards
mikesmith648 replied to EmbossingDieCompany's topic in Marketing and Advertising
I do like the idea of a makers mark type business card/ tag to use to promote my business. But if and when I do decide to get one it will be of my own volition and design. And I agree that the forum is for everyone and "constructive" criticism is usually welcome and even encouraged. But it should be constructive and not attacking or demeaning in nature. It is of my opinion that Joyce is not attacking or demeaning in any way, rather she was stating her opinion about the making of a stamp in HER shop and that she prefers not to make them "unless they insist". We are all here to learn and grow and it is a blessing for all the help that others and myself have reaped from this forum. I thank all of you for the fellowship and friendship that I have had brought upon me in the time on here, and I will continue to share any knowledge I have and hope to learn even more as time goes on. Thanks for this forum.........and God bless you all!! ok....off MY soapbox
