FortHansonleather83 Report post Posted May 9, 2017 Hey guys, I started making radio straps and bunker pants belts as a hobby and I'm looking for advice in what to use to paint the names that I stamp on my work. Do I dye then paint the lastly put on a coat of resolene? What supplies will I need? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JerseyFirefighter Report post Posted May 9, 2017 MD! Yes. emboss, dye, oil, paint, finish with resolene. I use to use a 50/50 resolene water mix airbrushed in two coats to keep a mellow gloss. If you happen to be going to the MD State Firemen's Convention in June, Stop by Ridgeway Leatherworks and we can talk shop. Always happy to speak to another fire leather guy face to face.
