TargetRockLeather Report post Posted May 27, 2019 Can you elaborate on the problem you are having? Do you mean the dye bleeds onto your clothes or whatever after it has thoroughly dried and the item is completed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steadybrook Report post Posted May 27, 2019 Yes it keeps rubbing off onto clothing in contact with the dyed leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TargetRockLeather Report post Posted May 27, 2019 There is always a residue after it dries. After the leather has dried completely, rub the dyed surface briskly with a soft cloth. It will pick up any residual pigment that has been left on the surface. It will also give the leather a nice luster. That should prevent it from rubbing off where you don't want it. Also if you apply carnauba creme or any other finish, that will also help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NVLeatherWorx Report post Posted May 28, 2019 Another thing to consider is, if it applies of course, is to not dye the flesh side as it will hold more residue than the grain side will. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
