    Good info. I found that it took a day or two of occasionally hitting it with heat and applying pressure on my Pixel 6 Pro. I ended up only using the bottom half of the back, for aesthetic reasons, but it looks like it was manufactured this way.

    • @dbrand
      @dbrand  2 ปีที่แล้ว +41

      No. You're thinking of chrome tanned leather. Far more resistant to elements like water, but also doesn't develop a rich patina (or any patina at all) the way vegetable tanned leather does.
