Members dickf Posted February 25, 2009 Members Report Posted February 25, 2009 Hey I think it looks great. I'm also finishing up my first G27 holster for a customer, and man are they small! Do you have a shot of it being worn? It looks nice. Quote US GUNLEATHER www.usgunleather.com twitter.com/usgunleather facebook.com/USGUNLEATHER
Members Peterk Posted February 25, 2009 Author Members Report Posted February 25, 2009 no I didn't take a shot of it being worn, but will probably do so tonight. Thanks. Quote
Members pintail55 Posted February 25, 2009 Members Report Posted February 25, 2009 Looks great. If you don't mind me asking , what color is that? Quote
Members Peterk Posted February 25, 2009 Author Members Report Posted February 25, 2009 That is the Angelus Cordovan and Jet Black dye, with Angelus Perfect Stain Shoe Wax in corresponding colors as top coat . I buy them here: http://turtlefeathers.net/text/angelus/dye.html. Cheapest pricing I can find so far on Angelus dyes and shipping is fast. Quote

Members Twosons Posted February 25, 2009 Members Report Posted February 25, 2009 What type (brand) of leather is that? Quote
Members Peterk Posted February 26, 2009 Author Members Report Posted February 26, 2009 That was made with Tandy stock... They were having a big sale, I didn't have enough money, I didn't have time to wait for leather to ship to me, etc. all contributed to this Tandy leather purchase. Only way to buy Tandy leather is to go into the store and hand-pick the leather. They don't have good stock to begin with, not compared to W&C and Hermann, but once in a while you find out that is bearable. It'll be hard to go back to Tandy after I try the likes of W&C... Quote

I started with Eco-Flo and Angelus was night and day. It soaks through the leather a good 1/16" so I don't have to worry about dye coming off as before. Spraying with airbrush makes quick work of apply the dye. I've also tried wool dauber but you would have to lay on a pretty heavy coat in order to get rid of possible streaks. I just discovered a new trick to even out the Angelus spirit dye, and that is to load a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol, and lightly go over the dyed holster with it. While it will pick up some dye, it will mostly just work the dye around and even them out and works beautifully. Good luck. Quote
