Members Lwleather Posted October 1, 2011 Author Members Report Posted October 1, 2011 I have some of the Fiebings Antique Finish that comes in the little jars. Is there a good way to use this stuff on a fairly big project? I like to antique some of my yokes on chaps and they are small enough I can get it wiped on and off fast enough it doesn't blotch too bad (most of the time) Anything bigger than that and it has dark and light spots that won't even up. Once the antique touches something, it's sealed and there's no fixing it. Would it help to have the leather damp?? Here's a picture of what I'm talking about. Hopefully you can tell by this. Where the stamping stops and the smooth starts there's a dark spot. Thanks for any advice. Thanks to everyone who responded. The video was a big help. It's amazing the results you can get when you do something the "right" way... Quote Lisa www.lwleather.com
Members Bard Skye Posted October 2, 2011 Members Report Posted October 2, 2011 Well, now I've got yet more additions to the list of things I've been doing wrong! <g> I've learned more in the last two weeks of reading this forum than I have since I first picked up the instructions to my Tandy Leathercraft Kit when I was a kid. I love this place! Skye Quote
