Mark Peters Report post Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) As i'm very new to leatherworking I have started out with cheaper hides, to keep down the cost of learning. I recently picked up a couple of craftsman sides from a local shop. I was practicing making a wallet yesterday and wanted to try finishing with just snoseal. After applying about three coats, I noticed what almost looks like freckles. I did clean the piece with denatured alcohol before applying the snoseal. I'm just curious - are these bug bites?

Troy Burch Report post Posted April 8, 2015 Can't really tell from the pics if it's bites or discoloration, but either way it's probly the cheap leather. Tick bites will have a little bump, grubs is what causes the little round holes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
