Members jrny4wrd Posted October 15, 2020 Members Report Posted October 15, 2020 Does anybody know if there is metallic leather of good quality? The last experience the metallic seemed to have a type of rub off. Tandy is introducing some from Italy, but unsure of its quality. Quote
Contributing Member fredk Posted October 15, 2020 Contributing Member Report Posted October 15, 2020 I got some from Le Prevo and it seemed ok. It was only used on a few odd projects but I had no problems with it. I got and used silver and gold. Scroll down just about half-way on this page; http://www.leprevo.co.uk/hides.htm Quote

You might try The Hide House. I can't speak to the quality as I've never used metallic leather, but they do carry it. Some are referred to as "foil" and others as pigmented. The best thing to do is to call and talk to them before you purchase. https://www.hidehouse.com/pc_combined_results.asp?search_prod=(searchlike~p.sku~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.nm~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.ds~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.search_terms~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.child_rollup_search_terms~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.child_colors~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.searchfield1~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.searchfield2~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.searchfield3~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.searchfield4~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.searchfield5~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.searchfield6~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.searchfield7~metallic|Or|searchlike~ p.searchfield8~metallic|Or|searchlike~ child_skus~metallic)&search_keyword=metallic Quote
