Contributing Member JLSleather Posted February 7, 2010 Contributing Member Report Posted February 7, 2010 Suddenly, I have a rush on the gals wanting me to "paint" on their handbags. No carving, just paint. So I need a recommendation (yes, I searched ... this entire section). I can paint, that's not a problem. On the new ones, I'll use the same Fiebing's spirit as always, but some of the others will have already been sealed, so I guess I'm going to use the acrylic (much as I love that idea). Acrylics hold up to you gals? What I need to know is which acrylics we like and a sealer. They'll be sprayed, if that matters. Ladies? Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law." IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.

Contributing Member JLSleather Posted February 7, 2010 Author Contributing Member Report Posted February 7, 2010 Yeah, that's what I thought, too. I'll offer to sell them NEW bags with a painting. Recommend dyes or paints for that? Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law." IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.
