Members stampingdelight Posted January 19, 2021 Members Report Posted January 19, 2021 hi I am sure everyone has thier own views but what is best to keep the shape of molded 3-4 oz leather item letting leather dye on its on all the way out for a few days or is thier other metthods better? Quote
Members Webicons Posted January 19, 2021 Members Report Posted January 19, 2021 I assume that you mean DRY? I find that letting it dry naturally overnight is fine. This one is double sided Barenia. I let it air dry overnight and stitched the next day. There are a few hot spots from the mold but the form came out fine. https://www.instagram.com/p/BgJlgUuni2F/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Quote
Members DJole Posted January 20, 2021 Members Report Posted January 20, 2021 If you try to rush the drying in some way by direct heat, you may end up cooking that leather or making it brittle. Just plan ahead to let it dry naturally. I wonder if perhaps anybody has used things like boot dryers in this process? Quote
