Members Shooter McGavin Posted January 27, 2011 Members Report Posted January 27, 2011 Ya so, the Fiebings Medium Brown came out a bunch darker than expected. Any way to lighten it a bit, or is it destined for the circular file? Quote Zlogonje Gunleathers
Members marine mp Posted January 27, 2011 Members Report Posted January 27, 2011 Shooter M, No thing should have the destination of the "circular file"!!!!!!!! Dy e the piece black or try "vinegarooning" it. Semper-fi Mike Quote "The first one thru the door...gets the copper-coated candy".

I have found that mixing it into a jar of Saddle tan gives a better 'medium' color. Quote Chris Three Mutts Customs Leather - http://www.threemuttscustoms.com
