Interesting -- what did the denatured alcohol do that wasn't working? I've been cutting Angelus dyes with 91% isopropyl alcohol when mixing small batches, and acetone for the big batches I use for dip-dyeing. Acetone was what I'd seen recommended on Angelus's website at one point, but it is just so caustic, eats through my gloves and makes me nervous about what it's doing to the leather, and I'm like Angelus whyyyyyy. D: I'd been planning to try denatured alcohol instead next time I mixed up a batch -- glad I caught your comment before I did! But I'm curious about how denatured alcohol vs the Angelus reducer behaved differently? Quote
