Tina Report post Posted March 15, 2012 Thank you soooo much everyone :-) Dyeing on leather is not that easy cuz, it "sticks" at the same second the dye hits the leather surface. My way is to delute the dye (a lot) and paint it on layer by layer...This gives me way more control over the whole process even if it takes a longer time.
