Dyeing leather
#1
Hello again.

I'm nearly finished my madder chamois project.  I've just got one last question:

I understand that after taking the material out of the dyebath, you're supposed to let it dry, and then wash it to remove any unfixed dye and pieces of root.  Should you use soap/detergent, or just plain water?

Prepared to go where my heart belongs,
Back to the past again.
