A protective leather finish, such as clear Leather Sheen, is not necessary to seal the dye pen color, but it is necessary to protect the leather.
TIP: To avoid bleed or accidentally slipping off the edge, start coloring in the center of the area to be colored. Slowly work up to edges. Let color migrate up to edge.
Blending: To blend colors, first start with a base light color. Yellow is used here.
Techniques & Ideas:
• Adds color to leather projects with ease. No mess to clean up after done
• Each pen has two tips, a fine tip for details and a brush tip for blending
• Four sets available, each with six different coordinated colors
• Dye is fast drying, permanent and non-toxic
Green and light tan are added next. Use the light tan again going over the edges of the greens to blend / blur them together.
Add light and dark orange and red. Use brown and light tan on acorn. Again use the lighter color pens to blend colors together.
After using a pen over a different color, always clean the tip by dabbing it lightly on a paper towel.
CORRECTWRONG Brighter Colors: To make the dye pen colors be brighter on your leather project, first paint areas you want to be bright with white Leather Acrylic Paint. Let the paint dry completely, then apply dye pens.
Background Coloring: To add depth to your design, first completely color the design.
Then use a different color and apply it on the background around your design.
