Acetone removes all type of acrylic paint, but it will fuck up vinyl if you leave it on too long. (This knowledge was brought to you by the custom doll making community. Lol)
I've never heard of this method before. Usually what I do is draw over the logo with a black Sharpie paint pen (specifically the paint pen Sharpie, regular Sharpie is ass for this method) until it's completely covered, wait until it's dry and go over it a second time if needed, then when all that's left is the obviously painted over leather I hit it with liquid shoe polish on the parts that were painted and then use the foam head of the shoe polish applicator to blend/fade the liquid shoe polish around the area of the band logo until that whole area just kinda looks like it's never been painted over. Works like a charm and thanks to the liquid shoe polish being meant for leather application in the first place it doesn't show that there was work done there if done correctly. You can paint over that in a couple hours if you want but I've had best results if it's left to dry over a day.
3 in 1 Oil will remove acrylic paint. It's supposed to be 97% naptha? Anyway I did an experiment where I stamped leather, rubbed in acrylic paint marker and then cleaned up the excess with this stuff, it works ok and it hasn't disintegrated the leather. I think. The goal was to put words on leather without buying a $300 heat press. I was just using number/letter stamps from harbor freight, which work great and are real cheap
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS INPUT! Honestly by no means am I an expert at what I do! I just showcase methods that work for me and that I have been using for years. I would love to try 3 in 1 Oil to remove paint next time I have to pull a logo!
@@reptil_diy I googled if it’s actually safe on leather and their AI dealie just told me it’s not candy and I shouldn’t eat it For the record I was using it on Veg tan belt leather that was already dyed black but is pretty processed, like the back is smooth. Leather jackets are chrome tanned usually so there’s different stuff used to tan the leather.
This tutorial just saved my ass! I started my current jacket a couple months ago and decided to paint the collar yellow. That looked like ass so I decided to test my luck with some dollar general toothpaste and holy shit it worked! Thank you so much!!!!

One of my favorite crusty punks ever!
even though i may not have a leather jacket this was still nice to look at and kind of learn from it! keep up the good work

Awesome to hear! Was the yellow just paint pen or painted solid with acrylic paint?
@@reptil_diy It was solid acrylic although I used an old sponge instead of a rag which seemed to work better.
Awesome! I am very surprised to hear that, I will try a sponge next time 🦖
Great video! FYI, Matte Black acrylic paint is great for touching up scuffs on vegan leather black boots!
Great information 🦖
Love your stuff man
Great video!
is this a nicer way to get rid of an old logo and add another band's name to your jacket cool,.......bravo lad,.......marius(punk rules).
For the love of everything holy, please people spend the money on a good leather cleaner and conditioner
It's worth it to make stuff last
1:26 AYO?? REPTIL?
Wrong supplies 🥴
I tried nail polish remover to remove acrylic pen stuff from my leather and it doesnt do shit
You can probably just paint any grey bits black with some leather paint.
@@Iararuss Absolutely! Leather paint is essentially just high quality acrylic paint, I recommend Angelus brand 🦖
