So, hootch and Fiebings Dye are mutually exclusive?

Fiebings is liable to stain your teeth if you drink it, though.

I have green and blue Eco Flo waterstain and it works but is nowhere close to as good, IMO, as Fiebings dye. I used SnoSeal on the pieces I've used it on. I'll try to get pics and post them even though the pic post thing doesn't like me on here....

Please do post some photos.  I have a bottle of turquoise that I can't get to work for the life of me.  The other colors I have do fine, but I haven't tried blue or green.  Fiebeng's Royal Blue just comes out black, and not blue when you try to dilute it.  So I don't have a blue leather dye!

I wonder if you cut the royal blue with some white? Lighten it up a bit? Maybe 80/20?

So much leather...so little time.

The Royal Blue is a Professional Oil dye - do they make a white Professional Oil dye to blend with it?  I see the white acrylic dye, which is a bit of a paint, but I was under the impression you couldn't/shouldn't blend the two...

Here are links. Can't seem to post pics directly, my apologies.

I believe you can just thin these with water to lighten them up too but those are both straight from the bottle. They are about as dark as the pics too so this is close to real life. I do notice a bit of color transfer from the sheath when I wear it and get some sweat or rain on it even having SnoSealed it.
