Dyes may be oil-, water-, or alcohol-based. There’s no right or wrong type of leather dye base, but there are certainly advantages to each. For example, water-based dyes are easier to clean up. Moreover, alcohol-based dyes go on smoother and are less streaky. First off, it’s important to understand that leather dyes should be chosen with a specific project in mind. Consider the material you are working with as well as your desired results. Most leather and fabric dyes will only work on vegetable-tanned or untreated leathers. If you are unsure about the quality of your leather, you can perform tests to determine if it is vegetable-dyed.
