  • In this quick video, I show my process for painting and dyeing a tooled leather belt. The video is sped up 500% to cut the time down of the video.
    I used Fiebing dark brown pro oil dye on this belt along with Angelus acrylic paints for the coloring of the flag and letters.

    You make it look so easy! Which motivates me to go over to my bench and try something! My problem is it always ends the same, with me not liking how something is turning out, and it getting thrown into the ever growing mound of unfinished projects... Love watching you work all the same! Thnx!

    Thank you for all your videos. They are very helpful. Do you happen to have a video on dyeing large areas around tooling? Actually it's your field notebook pattern. I tooled the front but struggle dying the back and border without it being streaky or getting into any tooling area

    Really great result. What is the difference between using the pro dye and acrylic paint?

    Nice work, but narration during the process would be very helpful to us newbies. Explain as you go, as far as what type/size brushes, how to apply the correct amount of paint without going beyond the targeted area.
    Thanks.👍

    Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us. Did you use a stamp for the flag, and if so what size is it and where did you purchase it from?

    Looks great Don!.. I have a problem when I put dye or finish on tooled leather it swells the cuts and tool marks so it's no longer crisp looking... ever experience that?

    How do you keep your white paint white after antiquing?

    • @cinchup11
      @cinchup11 5 років тому +2

      He uses Fiebings Tan-Kote after he paints, and then again after the antiquing. The Tan-Kote is like a protective coat over the paint and dyes.

    the black for the background is dye and not paint, correct?

      Yes it’s dye... but it’s actually dark brown.

    What flag was that supposed to be? Because it looked like it was supposed to be the United states flag, but the colours are wrong...

    "The Thin Blue Line represents the relationship of the police in the community as the protectors of the citizenry from the criminal element.
    "
    It represents those men and women that are willing to give their life for the peace and harmony of the community they serve. To be an officer, it is no easy task. Everyday brings on new challenges, yet new opportunities do arise.
    You make arrests, patrol the streets, and do what no other citizen will ever do. You are the Thin Blue Line that will always stand strong, united, and exhibit true strength from within."

    Nice work...but by the rules of our flag..you desecrated our flag by changing the colors...the rules say you can only change our colors if you are in a active combat zone (to what ever color the camo is)..
