Members Suicide Posted February 16, 2012 Members Report Posted February 16, 2012 I have found that the eco flo products do a much better job if you let them completely dry (24 hours). Yes, they said these are most like the other acrylic products (paints etc) but need more time for polymerization as water based. You can think about these like about regular acrylics using by artists / they can be easily swept away while wet, but after polymerization happens they keep on the surface pretty well.

Members Artimus Posted September 18, 2012 Members Report Posted September 18, 2012 This is Mahogany oil dye and two coats of "Resolene" as a resist. (and dab the dye from the resisted areas quickly) Quote Practicing with an Etsy page here -----> ETSY
Members DoubleC Posted September 18, 2012 Author Members Report Posted September 18, 2012 Thanks Artimus, that's really beautiful. Oh the 'oooops' I've had since this thread started :-) I seem to forget more than I learn and I love it when an old thread surfaces to help with my memory.

Members HellfireJack Posted September 18, 2012 Members Report Posted September 18, 2012 You would want to use a more effective resist than acrylic for "ooops" type issues. Latex rubber would probably provide better protection. There's a how to here on the forum. http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=11101 Quote
Members DoubleC Posted September 18, 2012 Author Members Report Posted September 18, 2012 OMG Jack with the 'oooops' issues I have sometimes, this looks like magic. Thanks so much. Now can you just find me a paper cutter thing that will cut leather straight since me and straight don't live on the same block. Or same state. I'd be such a happy camper.
