Members whiteeugene Posted March 25, 2013 Members Report Posted March 25, 2013 I wonder if they finished it then used some kind of a resist maybe two or three cotes let that dry and came back and wiped it with acrylic paint the paint would stall in the low spots and would wipe off of the flat spots I have used this to fill in letters as lone as you let the resist dry good the paint will not stick you can wipe it of with a damp cloth.

Phatdaddy Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 I've seen a number of members use techniques like this: One of the dog collars that I sell the most is the one pictured below. It's black leather, and "antiqued" with Eco Flo Gold Frost. They also sell a Silver Frost. http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=66095 I'm not sure if this will achieve what you are looking for, but I thought I would link it anyway.

Kevin Where do you find the frost colors? I don't see them on tandy's site Quote Mister Mostaccio's Mustache Wax Shop www.mistermostaccio.etsy.com
Phatdaddy Posted March 26, 2013 Report Posted March 26, 2013 I live in Canada and I'm used to the Tandy store here not having the same stuff available in the US, so I thought nothing of it. I'm not sure where it comes from tbh. (maybe discontinued now since they launched the professional waterstains) I did a google search and see there is some available from ebay. Others have even used silver/gold/bronze/copper colored paint and have very good results. Kevin Quote
