Members Rayban Posted March 8, 2008 Members Report Posted March 8, 2008 Luke...excellent work my man....tell me about that pre-dyed W&C...do you handle it the same way you do the un-pre-dyed leather? Just case it, stamp, and sew? Actually, with the limited stamping I do, I find I can just wet the W&C to a certain point, then stamp. I don't actually case it, since I'm able to finish my small projects in one sitting. Can this pre-dyed be worked the same way?? Again....you do great work...I endeavour to reach such a quality level. R Billy, git to feeling good!! Quote Raybanwww.rgleather.net

R Billy, git to feeling good!! Rayban the W&C is a God send..just use it like you would any Veg tan leather, apply a light coat fo Neetsfoot oil and apply the final finish. Quote Luke
esantoro Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 HEY ED.. the edges are finished with brown edge coat and burnished withthe felt burnishing wheel Hi Luke, I just ordered some brown edge kote. i'm also heading to the art store tomorrow to pick up a few colors of heavy acrylic. Edge kote comes in only black in brown. Is there something one can do to alter the shade? I'm also want to take Art's advice and look into some shoe polish. If I remember correctly, the polish that comes in the little round glass jars does look a lot like edge kote. Thanks for the pics of the WC chestnut. Good looking stuff. ed Quote http://www.waldenbags.com http://www.waldenbags.etsy.com
