Water Spots on dyed leather.??

[JDK67]

Still learning     

Didn’t see any previous discussions on this issue so,,, 

While dying a 2-3oz piece of veggitan it looks like water spots in it.  Should I have “cleaned” the leather first with a deglazer.? There was NO water on the leather before starting the dye. And no finish that I know of on it previously.

I find using the Fiebing's saddle soap w/glycerin before Appling a color tends to come out a little more even, and your less likely to have contamination on the surface that acts as a blocker/ blotch-er.

Thanks, I’ll give it a try next time.
