This was very helpful. I didn't know you could wet a cloth and wipe off excess. Really helped me out!
Great info. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you for this Awesome video, I didn't know to use the wet cloth to wipe off excess either. All the best!
This is a much better way of using this. Always feel like I'm wasting a ton in cloths and sponges
This has to be the cutest thing I have ever seen ^_^
I'm so glad this popped up in my recommended for some reason
I VERYMUCH LIKED YOUR ANTIGUE STAIN WORK AND ILL KEEP WATCHING
That was both a fun and informative video Yvonne, thank you kindly for making it.
Your antiquing really turned out fantastic!
I absolutely loved it!!! I love leath but working. I do it too.
Thank you! I’m going to try it.
i like the tad water tip
1st times l antiqued l use Kiwi shine and nourish Cream in the brown l wanted, worked great! Was shiny, but l came back with the wax in brown shoe wax and sealed it by melting the wax with a small torch and then rubbed off. For small projects it works very well.
Yvonne that is exactly how I apply the antique gel.. Not because of having more control of how evenly applies. And like Ecoflo on some projects vs Fiebings antique.. Makes your tooling pop when using a lite dye.. Thx
How many different gel antiques do you have? Could you show an example of the different ones (if you have any) that you use? This is exactly the video I have been looking for!
You are just the cutest person I swatch every thing
Very nice work!!!
Thanks!
:-D
such fabulous work
hello madam,could you please explain me in details regarding types of leather dyes and protective coatings and their purpose? i am really confused with it.
Very, very cool!
:D hehe, thanks!
Do you put a top coat over this antique gel or is it good to go?
What about useing a few triangle makeup sponge from the dollar store to apply the dye to the leather it wood use a lot less dye. The sponge has a small points so u could get into corners it's just a thought.
great video Yvonne! new subscriber here !
Beautiful Yvonne, very beautiful.
Very good. Hope you have more leather videos.
Great video
Hello Yvonne have you ever tried the gel when making your leaf earrings?
Got some on my hands is it safe
try silicone makeup sponges on amazon. haven't tried it but I am so buying some
Do you use Resolene?
Thank you!!!
I wonder if there is similar antique colouration in gold? What's the name again of the product you are using ?
Does it have to be the leather without a finished side?
Any chance you could answer questions please?
Do you not use some kind of finish on it afterward like you would the water based Eco Flo dyes? I use Canyon Tan a lot and finish with Super Sheen. Does the antiquing not rub off like Eco Flo dye does if you don't finish it? Thanks!
Phillip Carr , I vigorously rub the leather down with oil and bees wax to burnish and seal the pores of the leather. On the corsets I see my clients wear from purchasing 3+ years ago there isn't any dye rub off, but on something that gets daily wear the results might be different though. on pieces that have detailed coloring in them it wouldn't hurt to use all the sealing techniques at your disposal. so long as it's not gunking up, overkill isn't a bad thing lol
I'm in the planning phase of a super gaudy Spaghetti Western style gun belt. Probably something that's not going to see regular use:).
I've only used beeswax when slicking edges. Are you saying that you rub it into the grain/face of your projects?
Phillip Carr that sounds cool!
I have a piece of old denim that I keep saturated in olive oil and melted bees wax. it starts off stiff, but as I rub the leather the friction melts it into the leather. I love the smell and texture, makes my leather smell honey sweet :)
What is your ratio for your olive oil/beeswax?
Now how would you finish would you add a Sheene?
Excessively cute?
no such thing! :-p
Yvonne Williams *You’re* excessively cute. 😉
Hey I am going to make my first belt, it's just a plain veg tan belt and I want to dye it. I bought the antique gel but for the belt should I use some regular dye instead?
Thanks

Did you end up getting an answer Joey?
@@aussiegrace hey, didnt get the answer but went with the antique gel, it worked out great
@@joeofnotrades great. I'm just starting my leather journey.
@@aussiegrace good luck with it, make sure to make a few videos
@@joeofnotrades I'd like to make some videos one day. Do you have a channel?
Hi
Ugh. I should've watched this video BEFORE doing my first test. B/c I mixed mine with water (as I saw in another video) and whew....it's crazy looking and much too light.
Your missing some steps
Like what?
