Hey I've been wondering if anyone can straighten me out on something I've been wondering for a while regarding the dyeing process of leathers. Apparently , aniline finishes can be either drum dyed or hand applied (hand rubbed) and possibly sprayed on also. Now doesn't the method that the coating was applied affect the way a particular leather wears? For instance, we know that sprayed pigmant "re-dyes" will eventually, partially wear away and expose an undertone, so will the same happen for aniline finishes? Then if so, how could that be possible on a leather that has been "drum dyed", as I have always assumed that the drumming process caused the dye to completely soak through to the underside of the hide... and therefore wouldn't wear away at all. Let's say were talking about veg-tanned leather for the sake of this conversation. Thanks.
