Colt W Knight Report post Posted October 13, 2014 I mix acrylic paints with distilled water. It needs to be runny enough that it flows well, but viscous enough that it goes on enough there is still ample color. After the leather is dry, I do about 3 coats of color. After its dry I seal. Something that bends needs a flexible top coat like resolene or mop n glo. Flat surfaces like leather folders can be top coated with a spray can clear coat. Be sure to oil the leather prior to painting. A couple light coats will do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
