Process for curing and dyeing hides. It consists in soaking the hide in a bath of carnauba wax at 95 DEG and in keeping it in this bath for a period of time from 1 to 15 min. To give it its initial colour, it is soaked in a bath of methyl isobutyl ketone at 65 DEG for 5 min. or longer depending on the thickness and the nature of the hide. To obtain marbled tones, spread alcohol over the hide and spray the dyes and water using a brush or spray gun. Leave to dry in the air.
