JamesR Report post Posted November 6, 2015 Is it possible to dye latigo edges. Those gray edges are not attractive. I have been burnishing them but I do not like the color. Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boriqua Report post Posted November 7, 2015 I find the dye takes a little longer to dry completely before it stops rubbing but I dye them all the time. I dont seem to get as nice and slick a burnish as veg tan but maybe when I finally spring for leather burnishers for my dremel I will get better results. But sure .... go and dye no worries.

Boriqua Report post Posted November 8, 2015 Thanks! What kind of dye are you using? Jim No problem .. that is Fiebings dye. I have never tried it with water based dyes. Alex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colt W Knight Report post Posted November 8, 2015 I would think water based dyes wouldn't work as well on latigo because it is impregnated with oils. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
