Oh it was quite some time back when I made that one so I honestly don’t remember the exacts on it. Are you referring to the border within the serpentine or the distance from the edge of the belt in to the border?

Hi, i noticed you burnished it with bees wax before dyeing the edges. does this method still allow the dye to penetrate in spite of the beeswax on the surface of the edge?
It was actually just some glycerin saddle soap, and yes it does still allow dye to penetrate which is why I prefer it over some other methods. I also have a full length video over how I finish edges that might explain it all better!
What do you use to prevent rub off on your projects? I always get rub off whenever I dye belts, or anything that will be in constant contact with sweat. Always thought it was due to the heat and humidity in the area I live, but did not know if you had any ideas on what would help/prevent excess rub off. Thanks.
I don’t know if there is a perfect answer. I wouldn’t say my methods are the best, but on the products that I’ve made and even use for myself, I haven’t had many issues with rub off. I use pro dye, and I’ve heard that it helps but I’ve never actually compared straight against anything else. I try to wipe away as much pigment as I can that could be sitting on top of the leather after dyeing. I use tan kote as a top coat and it will pick up extra pigment and wipe it off too. Some conditioners and other types of top coats may help in the long run but I don’t know if you can 100% eliminate it overall. Quality of leather may play a factor in some instances too.

What was the spacing that you sed as your guidelines for the serpentine?

@Girtyleatherco border within the serpentine that you use as a guide
