Members Peterk Posted March 4, 2009 Author Members Report Posted March 4, 2009 peterk, did you roughen the surface of the embosed leather before you applied the contack cement? try that on your next one. I roughen the flesh side and it glues very well to veg-tanned leather, but I did not roughen the skin side because that is the side that showed and the side I'm having trouble with. I will try to roughen the unexposed parts to see if that will help with the gluing issue. Thanks! Quote
