How To Make Veg Tan Look Like Patent Leather?

Recommended Posts

Hi does anyone here have any clue how to recreate a super shiny patent leather finish on veg tan? I was thinking of using actual polyurethane vanish but I would like a little bit of flexibility to the surface. Anyone have any suggestions?

Your best bet there is to call LCI and see what they have, or call Wickett & Craig and see if they can apply something, they have a great finishing dept and spray line.

Other than that, spray dye, let really dry, buff of excess dye, spray with something like Saddle Lac.

Thanks, Art! I haven't used Saddle Lac before. I'll experiment with that and call those companies. :)
