Unfortunately I don’t have access to these products at where Im located. Mainly fiebing’s stuff is available. Seems like tan kote and resolene are quite similar and should work I guess
Is there any black residue if you rub the jacket on anything white? I ask because, a few years back I dyed a dark brown motorcycle jacket black, and for good year anything light coloured that came into contact with the jacket ended up with black dye on it. Not too long after I did the dye job, I flew to Paris wearing a white shirt under the jacket. After wearing and carrying the jacket over my shoulder and in my arms, I looked like I’d been working in a coal mine. Not fun. And as of today the jacket is back to dark brown again.
I might give it another try if your process is stable.
I purchased some feibings pro black oil dye a couple of weeks ago. The intention was to touch up certain areas of my Sam walker jacket. I found it to have a very blue/violet shade to it that looked nothing like the deep black original finish. I was left disappointed as I didn't want to dye the entire jacket. Especially now after finding out it's not a deep black.
I’ve read that the USMC black has more brown undertones while the pro dye has more blue. I definitely won’t be sitting in any white chairs for awhile, just like I wouldn’t with new dark indigo jeans.
