Members Roux Posted July 28, 2019 Members Report Posted July 28, 2019 Hi friends, i wanted to see if anyone had recommendations for orange dye, and perhaps some pictures or links to some visuals. What i am realizing is finding a true bright orange is hard to get, or i am looking in the wrong places. Lol I'm talking Harley Davidson's kind of orange. Anyone have any imput? Thanks! Quote
wizard of tragacanth Posted July 28, 2019 Report Posted July 28, 2019 Which ones have you tried that didn't work? Fiebing's makes an Orange dye but I have not used it. https://www.springfieldleather.com/Fiebings-Leather-Dye-Orange-32oz If that does not work, you might try mixing Red and Yellow Fiebing's Pro Dye, to get exactly the shade that you want. nick Quote
Members Roux Posted July 28, 2019 Author Members Report Posted July 28, 2019 I haven't tried any yet, i went into tandy leather store near me and they had eco flow oranges and there was orange antiquing stuff. I hadnt seen any of the fiebings in orange, just brown colors that seemed close to orange until the guy showed me a swatch and it was darker and more brown than i was wanting. Ill check out that fiebings one, thank you! Quote

ABHandmade Posted July 29, 2019 Report Posted July 29, 2019 I do not know how it is available in the US, but just in case, look at Toledo Super (Kenda Farben, Italy) color code 33006. Quote
Members DJole Posted July 29, 2019 Members Report Posted July 29, 2019 Angelus has an Orange dye, as well as a Honey dye -- I haven't used either of them, so I can't say how close they are to the color you are looking for. Check online here: <https://angelusshoepolish.com/collections/leather-dye> Quote
Members Handstitched Posted July 30, 2019 Members Report Posted July 30, 2019 Theres a natural dye, its a bright orange-ish- yellow , I use it in cooking, Turmeric . It stains just about everything it comes in contact with , kitchen work benches, ......clothes. Theres no harm in experimenting with it or mixing it with other dyes to get the colour you want.
