zuludog Report post Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) What sort of solvent can I use to clean leather dye, please? I'm using Fiebings oil dye, and up till now I've applied it with a cotton bud or a dauber, and just discarded them when I'd finished Today I used a small paintbrush, and tried to clean it with paraffin/kerosene, but it's not touching it Edited September 24, 2015 by zuludog Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billybopp Report post Posted September 24, 2015 I use 90% rubbing alcohol (isopropyl) if needed, and then follow that with running water and brush cleaner http://www.amazon.com/General-Pencil-Company-Masters-Preserver/dp/B0009RRT9Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1443110240&sr=8-1&keywords=artist+brush+cleaner Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zuludog Report post Posted September 24, 2015 OK I've just experimented with methylated spirits, which is the British name for ethanol intended for hobby and camping stove use, and it works well. Thankyou. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King's X Report post Posted September 25, 2015 I was introduced to the 'Love Potion' by an UT Artist major. It is available at most craft shops.....Hobby Lobby, Michaels, Joann's etc. Use a coupon and you will save more because this stuff is expensive, but worth it. Oil, spirit or acrylic, doesn't matter. This little container has lasted me quite a spell since I purchased the last one.....almost 1.5 years. Check out this video. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
