Have you worked with the various other types of dyes used as inks, alcohol dyes, used for painting opposed to paint. I think they are alcohol based, I'm trying to find out more info on them.
@@JonRobinsonArt Hi, I've used several types of dyes, where in general dyes penetrate into the leather fibers, whereas paints usually sit on the surface, changing the color by adding a layer of pigment on top. Let me know what you might has seen or been thinking and I'll help as best I can!
@@JonRobinsonArt Ahh I see it I checked it out on Amazon, thanks for the name. I haven't tried that one. Knowing the ingredients/formula is often key. Popular manufacturers can generally be a little more reliable since we know more about the formulas and results, though there are all sorts of smaller/niche manufacturers that can make amazing things. I'll keep my ears open if I come across anything similar, always up to learn more about the options out there. Thanks
Could you review different type of antique finish as well and the top sealer as well. I often ruin the work on top sealer. Never get it quite right. Thanks.
Just the sort of information I needed. As a beginner it is pretty confusing. Thank you.
You're very welcome, thanks for the message. Always feel free to reach out with questions as you're learning, we'll be glad to help.
Great info; thank you!
You're very welcome, thanks for the message
I really like Renia black. I used an airbrush to apply it. It’s also an alcohol/oil if I understand correctly
We'll have to try more out with that brand. Do you find it has any unique pros/cons? Airbrushing sounds like an excellent technique to develop, too.

Hello 😃 Are you referring to the alcohol inks used for art (tiles, specialized paper, etc.)?
Or natural dyes?

What is the best dye, saphir?
Saphir makes some excellent quality products across their lines, Fiebings makes some really nice dyes, too
