Hi!

Finally, i have redone the back of the pocuh! Since actone went trough the front, the pouch was cover with streaking. But, i like the new thing much better! Picture will follow soon!

Hi there!

I know, it's been a while since i didn't post anything here, but, im back to leather working and i'm making on a leather pouch for a friend of mine

Ok, let's get to the point. I've applied a thin layer of tandy's rubber cement (made by Barge) on the bakside of my pouch and stick it to a piece of thick (1/4") piece of plastic to avoid the stretching of my leather.

Then, after tooling the piece, i remove the leather, but, the backside is still tacky and cover with cement. I dont want to line the piece and was wondering what can i do to remove the rubber cement?

I dont have cement thinner and was seeking a way to remove this mess.

Any comment will be appreciated!

Glad to be here with you again

I had meant to post a long time ago. Tea tree oil has become useful in removing glue residue.
