Frodo Report post Posted September 27, 2023 I bought a side gyom Springfield that is a veg tan split I found a huge brand on it and decided to make the brand part of the project here is my project First image is the front panel next is the back panel and then flap what I am wondering is the best method to highlight the brand when I apply my stain I will be using an antique saddle tan should I first paint the brand with a resist Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aven Report post Posted September 27, 2023 I like it Frodo. If this was my project I would use the resist on the brands. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chuck123wapati Report post Posted September 27, 2023 I wouldn't resist them because there are no real outlines to follow I think the brand will dye differently than the rest and be just as noticeable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Burkhardt Report post Posted September 28, 2023 My thought would be since it is a split is that it would take the antique like the background of something that has back grounding done when tooled meaning it will turn black over the whole thing instead of tan even with a resist on it.
