PAINT A BLACK LEATHER JACKET

[ROOK ALLURES]

Ran out of paint. Just ordered some more and will finish up next week. A medium sized jacket needs at least two of the small bottles for one coating.

Already set up my make shift paint station so did a bit of wool dye too. The original was just too bright for me so cut it down with a bit of black. Will let it cure and wash out next week.

Might even teacore black this goat. Hmm…

I used foam roller for the oil/acrylic/non water soluble paint for the leather

And microfiber roller for the water soluble dye for the wool

Beats using the small wool ball thing expensive and take too much time. Mass production at home…

Thank you! The use of a foam roller is a pretty nice idea. Nice jacket, by the way. Quite similar to the Aero Dustbowl...

which brand?

Just no name brand from Amazon, 2" foam rollers. Remember to painter tape the zips first. I made some mistake and had to spend extra elbow grease to clean the paint off the metal.

Thanks for the tips. In fact I was referring to the brand of the jacket...

The Peter's fan back half belt is a custom Del-66 (with a fan back) from Johnson Leathers. The Wool half belt is the Aero wool and leather half belt.
