Contributing Member Regis Posted October 23, 2007 Contributing Member Report Posted October 23, 2007 I've been using antique more for darkening cuts & an depression details than for the soft somewhat overcast color it produces on natural leather color. Now, I would like to do the opposite. I would like to dye black or dark brown and then use a white or other "light" color to get into those cuts and depression details. Anyone have a product or technique I could use? Thanks, Regis Quote God, Family, and Country (although liberals are attempting to destroy these in the USA)
Ambassador pete Posted October 23, 2007 Ambassador Report Posted October 23, 2007 If you're trying to do what I think that ou are- check out Jack Justis pool cases. I did a job for him and his finish is what you are looking for, He "wipes" dye/stain lightly over the leather leaving the cuts white/natural. He posted pictures here last year so look him up in the archives hope that this helps pete I think that it is www.justiscases.con Quote
Contributing Member Regis Posted October 23, 2007 Author Contributing Member Report Posted October 23, 2007 Pete, He does get a nice effect and they are beautiful. The ones I looked at on his site almost look hand painted because the lines are wider than I was thinking. I'm looking to fill the narrow cuts and just the edges of deeper depressions. It would appear as fine highlighting lines. Quote God, Family, and Country (although liberals are attempting to destroy these in the USA)
