DFWLeather Report post Posted November 24, 2012 (edited) I am stamping initials and logos into leather of fairly thick composition; 7-10oz. While I have been primrily pounding the impressions in with fairly good results, I am interested in using gold, silver or color in the impressions (letter or logo). I would appreciate some advice in this area as I believe it could add depth to my work. Your comments appreciated.

electrathon Report post Posted November 24, 2012 I have a hot press foil machine. I have never actually used foil with it, just dampen the leather and pres it in, works great. It looks burnished. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DFWLeather Report post Posted November 25, 2012 If it's a hot press, you could use foile for it, I suppose. Which one, and are you happy with it? thx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
