glockanator Report post Posted November 7, 2015 What dye do you use? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snubbyfan Report post Posted November 7, 2015 Fiebings USMC black. Let that dry a couple of days. Buff off the excess then give it a thin coat of Neatsfoot oil. Give that a day to sit and soak in, buff it then apply some Tan-Kote and wipe off the excess. After that dries for a little while, give it a good buffing.

stu925 Report post Posted November 8, 2015 I was not at all pleased with the USMC black when I tried it. As I recall I was using twice as much dye using that stuff to get the coverage I get using the Pro oil dye. I go through a lot of black dye compared to everything else I use so I went back to the black Pro Oil dye. Glad you had better luck with it.

snubbyfan Report post Posted November 9, 2015 That's interesting. My experience was quite the opposite. I use Fiebings professional oil dye for every other color except black. Seemed like the black didn't have the coverage I desired. For me the USMC Black works better. I buy it by the quart. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
