So, what I'm doing now is, this is our little leather coaster here again, and it's kind
of dried most of the way. What I'm doing is I'm just using a brush and I'm using a different
kind of finish. It's basically a type of paint, it's called Cova Color, they make it in different
colors and I'm just painting it on. You don't want to use any paint. You certainly want
to use these particular specialized leather paint. If you see it, it doesn't look particularly
great right now brushing it on, but that's because you apply it first and you let it
dry and then you're going to buff it out later so it gets a nice kind of smooth finish later.
So, basically you just kind of want to use your brush and kind of follow the contours,
follow the three dimensional structure you made by tooling it. Then once it dries you
can buff it out and it'll get kind of a really, it'll look really smooth and even then.
