How To Custom Paint Leather Jacket - Tips,Tricks and Techniques 

Haha actually yes vodka will work too👍 But my recommendations for people who don't drink vodka and don't have it at home 😁

@@Dariacreative love this response

cough cough reptil😂

The first method she said was to use alcohol. If someone isn't smart enough to use 80 proof If they don't have alcohol wipes then idk how they'd comprehend any DIY punk clothes lol

You know its not my idea to call this style "graffiti" . Just google -graffiti jacket- and you will see many designer jackets with same style prints as mine called graffiti jacket. I guess designers call it like that because such style reminds them of wall covered with writings images and paint splashes

Get of the girls back, she means edgy, streetwise style, WHO MADE YOUT THE WORD POLICE, GET A FREAKING LIFE,, her work is awesome if you can not say something nice stay quiet!!!

Your full of sh9t leave her alone !

Thank you !😊❤

Wish you all the luck with your brand! Hope my channel will be helpful ❤

@@Dariacreative thank you love that means so much and the same goes for you. Hopefully we can see this part of the fashion world take off together ❤ 🙏 🙌

Yes that is exactly what you need:)

@@Dariacreative thank you so much ❤️🙏

Same!

Hm its an idea:) Don't think that hoop will damage the image , but such way of painting will work only if your artwork is not bigger then size of hoop

I think an embroidery hoop would be to weak to get the closure shut--unless you're painting on LAMB leather--seriously, who came up with that! Lamb's leather may be very smooth and supple....but it's SO thin and fragile. For that matter, I think an embroidery hoop would just tear lamb's leather. It's so much easier if you make a few simple "shirt boards", the same as you would use for airbrushing (or hand painting) t-shirts. All you need is three or four, made from light plywood.Then you put your leather jacket on this board the same exact way, and then simple clamps for keeping the leather tight and smooth to work on. And speaking of leather, I agree with you 100%, Daria. Leather is a different surface to paint....I've found that many automotive custom painting tricks and techniques work well on leather, like pin striping, marbleizing, use of pearl pigments--like color shifting pearls. Leather is my favorite surface to work on. Thanks for posting this vid, good info!

We bleached the back of denim jackets and painted graffiti back in HS in the 80s, we would button them up and place a piece of plywood inside to keep it tight.

degreasing is must . for paint to connect with fabric properly

@@Dariacreative taking down the color and cutting another stencil it is then X)

You know if you mix paints together (one color of one paint+other color of other brand ) and then apply this mix on fabric there shouldn't be any problem. But if you apply one layer of one brand, and then other layer of other brand, if paints didn't connect with each other paint may peel off. The best way is to test paints on some piece of fabric . By the way Arteza fabric paints can be used on leather , at least that is what they say in the description of their paints:)

@@Dariacreative okay thank you so much mwah💓💕💓💕🥺

Yes I did :) but you know there are so many self taught talented artists out there. That I am not even sure that art school is necessary :) you can learn drawing just by practicing and watching some helpful videos on RU-vid

@@Dariacreative thank you for the encouragement 🙏

no Decola is bad for leather

Im wonderin the same

its a local brand.just search for any varnish for leather

@@Dariacreative ok and thank you

Its some small local brand. But you can search and buy any varnish for leather. Or Angelus finisher

@@Dariacreative oh thanks for the reply✌️ I’ve tried angelus finisher satin and matte and I’ve tried everything but it drys tacky no matter what 😕 I’ve tried a thin layer and heat gun and dried for an hour and still tacky 😕 I painted a handbag and it was tacky still after 3months.

@@LouMaccz Why does it feel tacky when completely dry? Please make sure that your layers are fully dry between layers. If not, the tackiness may occur if the layers have not cured. The tacky feel should go away over time. On FAUX leather surfaces, it tends to stay longer. We recommend a very light sanding with a 1000+ grit. This will not compromise the texture or paint on your project ( it's an information from their website)

Well it's pretty obvious that you are Russian , you are the only one here making fun of my English

@@Dariacreative я иностранец живу а России я сам художник люблю искусство, и рисовать, тату, ......вопрос у меня об светам,,,,,,???????? Английский супер понятно 👍удачи вам

No you better buy deglazer. Angelus has it

@@Dariacreative By the way, how do I check if the jacket has this additional layer? I tried finding the information at the producers site, but there's none

@@_Pariah_24100 well I guess deglazer is for the glazed leather. When leather is shiny and you can not only see it but feel it by touching. So to remove this glaze coat there is a deglazer. Is there any other additional layers which can be applied on leather- I don't know. Most of faux leather jackets on the market don't have any additional layers

@@Dariacreative Oh, alright! I mean,I know that it is leather, but I wasn't sure if it has that coating. Thanks for your advice! I'll use it in my craft :))

No I use faux leather.But can be used on genuine leather as well

I use Pebeo Setacolor fabric paints which work on leather. But not all fabric paints will work so better use special paints for leather

@@Dariacreative ty!

Hi! I use photoshop itself. But if I am.not wrong you can use Picsart app as well

It's is a local small brand varnish. You can search for Angelus finisher. Or just any leather varnish

Both an alcohol degreaser and this acrylic paint are pretty quick to dry, I'd say no more than 10 mins (or less) on the alcohol and practically/tangibly, the paint will be dry enough in 15 mins or less to go in with coat 2. More if it's a super thick layer. BACK OF THE ANGELUS BOTTLE directs to apply multiple this layers and that paint will be fully cured and flexible @ 48 hours.

18:27 can I use acrylic paint?

I am not sure. But I've got a comment one person wrote that tried simple spray paint and it didn't work . So you better buy spray paints for leather

i got a McJacket at a drive through the other day but i had to send it back bc it was overcooked

24 hours

It's a statue. Search for angel statues on Pinterest

Thanks

Simple acrylics may not work. They may peel off or crack. Even not all fabric paints will work. Pebeo which I use is suitable for leather . But the best for leather of course is Angelus leather paint. Simple varnish will make your artwork sticky. Once I used simple varnish and then dust was sticking to the artwork and it was not wearable...

@@Dariacreative oh okay, thank you

Synthetic brushes for acrylics

@@Dariacreative what finisher should I use if I only used Posca markers?

Paint for leather

So I guess you need to check description first can you use this spay paint on leather. There are also special spray paints for leather and vinyl , which should be flexible

Sounds a bit what?

@@paracuna gay

@@gummynoodles9036 ok so what now? I'll now write this down on my jacket and wear it on pride parade
