Members billsreef Posted March 8, 2011 Members Report Posted March 8, 2011 Had a small splash of green dye get on an unfinished belt. Naturally this is the good spirit based stuff, and wasn't nice enough to land on a spot that I could simply work it into the design. Not sure if simply dying over it with something like a real dark brown or black would adequately hide it. So figured I'd ask for ideas before making it worse or cutting the belt down to midget size Quote
Members Glock21 Posted March 8, 2011 Members Report Posted March 8, 2011 although I dont have much experience I would think you could use a dark Dye over it Had a small splash of green dye get on an unfinished belt.

Or, Green belt with black dyed details? Like doing the tooling in green and outer areas in black. There are no accidents, only design opportunities! Quote
