Guitar Strap Making - How to Antique Finish Custom Leather Guitar Straps. Leather supplies Tandy Leather Eco-Flo gel antiques finish and Eco-Flo Super Shene resist layer are used on this custom leather guitar strap to highlight the oak leaf and acorn tooling.
This is a custom made leather guitar strap that I am antiquing I have allowed three coats of resist to dry so the strap will turn out the shade I like.
It is a good Idea to practice with your antique finish on a piece of scrap leather to understand how this antique process works. You may find that if your resist layer is to light the antique may be to dark for you.
I have plenty of sheep skin pieces cut and trimmed for this process as you can see in the video so I can remove and buff the guitar strap to get the look I want.
