ABC3 Report post Posted January 23, 2010 When using Deglazer #12 on Horse Hide or Bull Hide (making a belt), do you have to rub down or just apply it with a clean cloth (no elbow grease). And then how long should I let it dry before I submerge in Fiebings Pro Oil dye. Thanks so much for any help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frank Report post Posted January 23, 2010 I've used the deglazer a couple of times before. Use a clean cloth and rub gently back and forth until all areas are covered. This stuff actually evaporates very quickly. A word of caution: do this outside if possible. The fumes are very strong and hazardous. Also, wear 2 pair of nitrile gloves when you do this as the deglazer will eat through at least the first pair!! You should be able to dye the leather within an hour since the stuff evaporates more than it is absorbed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
