Members HardeningLeather Posted August 17, 2018 Members Report Posted August 17, 2018 (edited) I would like any and all tips on how to harden leather. It is soft leather but really I am looking for all methods because I like experimenting. Chemicals or whatever you may know. Thank you. Edited August 17, 2018 by HardeningLeather Quote
Members rodneywt1180b Posted August 17, 2018 Members Report Posted August 17, 2018 I don't know much about it. What are you working on? If it's something like armor I know of this method though haven't tried it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiled_leather My admittedly limited understanding is that rawhides and vegetable tanned leathers are going to be harder than chrome tanned leather in general.
