Members Stetson912 Posted October 2, 2017 Members Report Posted October 2, 2017 Lol, some dyes do that. And if it was wet moulded it could do that too. And like sanch said, it would really hardened up dipped in hot/boiling water/wax. Cuir bouilli is a term meaning boiled leather, it was a process used for making armor harder. I think that would really make them effective lol. Quote
