TTcustom Report post Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) Um Ihnen die Eindrücke tiefer müssen Sie tränken, oder "case", das Leder. Für kleine Projekte und hellem Leder Ich befeuchtete es mit einem Schwamm und ließ es dann auf normale Farbe zurück. Die richtige Menge Wasser contenet in der Leder wird Schleppmesser Schnitte und Stanzen tiefer. Bob Parks has a great article about casing leather for tooling in the how to section. here is a link to it; Casing leather.
