Oh my gosh, i get over 40 years on leathercraft and i learn the faster and best way to antique. No overnight waiting and i get exactly the finish i wish. I use proresist not resolene but i so fast wow and give me a neat finish. Thank you very munch.
Thanks Joe! Finishes are something I am constantly trying to figure out and this video, along with your explanation of the steps involved, was very helpful to me.
Thanks for sharing your techniques.. It’s amazing the small things you do that help others on there leather crafting journey.. Ex.. Leaving the sheep wool in the antique.
Im new to this! I have the quality leather and some tools and even the dye but have been too intimidated to even try! Your videos have given me the confidence to start in on this craft. Thank you!
I have a questions. I skive diy leather then cut my shape , paint and finish it. After 12 hours I can see that the cut piece has shrunk by about 1 mm around the edges! How can I fix the problem?
Great tutorial Joe. As a beginner, I'm sure you make it look easier than it is, especially for newcomers. Can I ask if you had to prepare that leather before you started? Thanks.
Me preguntaba si podría usar el patrón que le compré ayer de hojas de roble y bellotas para hacer un cinturón y mostrarlo en mi canal , siempre poniendo el enlace a su creación y dándole las gracias por supuesto , si no pues nada , me lo haré para mi😂😂🎉
I am just curious, at what point in this process do you think it would be best to apply a little paint. i love your videos. always learning more. thanks.
Awesome advice Joe, thank you. How would you do a larger surface with the final top coat? Say something like a Bible cover or large toat bag? Would you just do it in small sections?
This is awesome!! A related question…I use Pro Dye and have gone back and forth between neatsfoot or olive oil right after dyeing like this, but recently, as the dye or dye/oil dry I get a metallic/oil (rainbow cast) look…any ideas or thoughts on that??? I’ve never had that problem before until recently.
My dad started leather work in 1971 he passed 2 years ago. I got all his tools and leather. All i have now is tan kote . Not resoline. Can i use top coat the same way. I have only started doing bigger projects. Not just key chains😂
Tan kote will still allow moisture penetration so, yes you can use it as a resist, but it will not be as effective at blocking the pigment in the antique.
hi joe! thanks for this video! I have a question for you, is it possible to apply wax or balm after a few months to soften and rehydrate the leather? Do the layers of resolene allow absorption or do they create some kind of barrier?
Well- we are looking to start offering them. You can also buy a full hide and cut it up. Weaver also offers a fleece pack (www.weaverleathersupply.com/products/dressing-fleece-pack-of-8). They work ok but I like the sheepskin better.

I'm new to dyeing leather, and I really love the antique look. Thank you for sharing; it helped me start dyeing leather!✨✨✨
In joy your video s
the sock in the kit LOL i love it!
Very informative Joe thank you. Hopefully now my projects will hold the antique better after following this.
I have a questions.

On thinner leather, mine curled up. should I do both sides? Also, It totally dry now. Should I just go ahead and use the oil or should it start damp?
EXELENTE SALUDOS DESDE MEXICO HACES UN BUEN TRABAJO
Gracias. Te aprecio.
Is there any chance you could do a short video on how to repair the 'camouflage' dye that has been applied to the leather
Perfect! Thank you so very much!
What do you do when you cannot have those products in your state?
What if you want to add paintwork? You paint before or after you oil it?

I want my pattern to be darker than the raw leather color. How do I go about that? Do I use a light brown before the resist?
Awesome advice Joe, thank you. How would you do a larger surface with the final top coat? Say something like a Bible cover or large toat bag? Would you just do it in small sections?

I tried to buy your basic antique kit on your side but it says it doesn’t ship to California. Is there another way we can get this kit? Thank you .
confuzzled - the 23+ January billfold you oiled before dying. is an interchangeable step?
What do you do to the edges and back ?
How do you treat the back of the project?
Good video presentation.
One question. Did you buff after dye or oiling at all? Didn't see you do that.

I was told to use saddle soap after cpl months. Keep in mind i just started cpl yrs ago.
So what do you use if you are in California,the pro dyes won't ship here
Nothing is allowed to ship to cali. 😂 jk
Does the kit come with an old sock? 😅 Great video Joe! Super easy to follow
Where can I buy the sheepskin that you use as an applicator?
Well- we are looking to start offering them. You can also buy a full hide and cut it up. Weaver also offers a fleece pack (www.weaverleathersupply.com/products/dressing-fleece-pack-of-8). They work ok but I like the sheepskin better.
Any good paint store that sells clear floor finishes carries fleece applicators and the size will keep you in fleece for years.
Great video, easy to understand and to the point. KUDOS!
Why resoline before antik?
Why not tan-kote?
The important part is to use a resist, there are a few, and to make sure it's dry before applying the antique.
