Thanks, I bought factory dyed so I can't tell. The color is bright orange and I know, I know, pictures should be better, those was taken at the midnight when I was finished with everything. Morning after I delivered the bag. Quote
Members YinTx Posted March 30, 2015 Members Report Posted March 30, 2015 Malchik, Thank you so much for sharing your videos, for those of us still learning they are full of ideas and tips. I really admire your work. Would you be so kind as to share what you are using for edge ink, particularly in your watch strap video? And is it the same material you use on your bag straps? Thank you for your time, YinTx Quote

Thank you for your time, YinTx Hi Yin, sorry for late answer. The edge ink I'm using is Fenice one called section lacquer bought at Tandy, but it seems they don't sell it anymore. I got a tip that Giardini one is good as well and is not so pricy either. you can find more about on http://www.leatheredgepaint.com/portfolio/dense-leather-edge-paint/ and even order cheep trial pack to test if is it working for you. Both of edge paints can be treated thermally (hot-glazing), but please note you hot-glaze just a first layer. Quote
