raysouth Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Posted August 7, 2013 Howdy All, I have been working with different leather conditioners and have attempted to post some results as attachments. Hope that they are legible. I will attempt to get pics of the leather cards as well, but may take a bit of time for me to figure out. This was a pleasant project for me. Please feel free to ask any questions as I have probably overlooked a few things. I hope that this will give some folks an idea of the products available to finish/enhance the many projects they make. 6 pages and hope they are in order. God bless. Ray I JUST NOTICED THAT THE PAGES DID NOT COME UP IN ORDER. SORRY BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO CORRECT THIS. Here are the pics of the sample cards butnot being a photographer, I doubt if they will be of much value. Quote

Tucson, AZ absolutely swears by Bick #4. I use it on everything and to me it is the best of a wide range of products used previously. Robert Good try on the pix. I am a photographer, and my guess is that the "white balance" is off in your shots. Likely you shot them using a point and shoot with tungsten lighting. Looking at the "white" paper gives you a clue that you didn't get a good rendering. Shooting JPEG limits your ability, but try it again in sunlight but not so that there is glare on your display. Should work better. Appreciate the effort you've put into this. Quote

I'm vintage, like the old box cameras with the slide in plate, lol. I will just place the cars on a shelf and there they will end up resting until my estate is emptied, I suppose. Just enjoy the task of trying new products and sharing what I can. Hope somone gets a bit out of it. God Bless. Ray Quote
