How To

Recommended Posts

How do you go about dyeing and antiqueing?

Do you do it in this order or am I wrong?

1. Coat of oil

2. Dye, useing frebings pro oil dye

3. Put Eco-flo super shene as a reesist over the whole area died *2

4. apply frebings antique finish over resist, let sit for a few min and wipe off.

5. Apply super shene again?

Will the antique still dye the tooling with the resist or do you have to keep the resist away from the cuts

Thanks,

Travis

The only thing I would add is that I have not personally had good results mixing Eco Flo products and Fieblings antique. I use Neat Lac as a resist and get a much better result. Neat Lac as such is no longer manufactured, but there is the same product being sold under different names. There are several threads on this subject. It is my understanding that Clear Lac is the same product as Neat Lac and is sold by Panhandle Leather in Amarillo among others. Hope this helps.
