Restoring with New Dye

 

I wanted to test the new Eco-Flo dye on an old existing project and the results were spectacular. This old handbag had been lying around my store for two years and as you can see on the one side, the color - done with the old spirit based dyes - completely faded!

The handbag had been treated with Aussie Conditioner and Dubbin, but not in the last six months. So I simply applied the new waterbased dyes directly on top. The dye penetrated well and you can see how the newly restored half looks. I have not yet applied a new conditioner over the new dye.
