Title: Eco-Flo?
Post by: KentuckyWolf on June 12, 2010, 02:19:00 PM
I am trying to stain and finish two sheaths (a father & son set with helle blades), has anyone used Eco-Flo (from tandy leathers)? It was the only thing I could find at the store. Its all-in-one....acorn brown. Is it a good stain? Any pointers?

I don't like the eco-friendly dyes as well as the alcohol based. It is more difficult for me to get a smooth finish than the alcohol based dye. I think they are phasing out the alcohol based dyes though. Just my 2ยข

I also dislike the ecoflo but thats all they're gonna make,so we'll all just have to learn to use it.

I used it on a quiver and it wasn't to bad. Had yo go over it to get smooth finish like stated but it turned out great.
