Probably one additional lap in the canvas/linen/nylon side would probably remove it. Odds are that this transfer will be not occur for very long. It's pretty common for this to happen with new strops.
Take a nice soft cloth and wipe the excess dye off of the strop.
Should I lather it first then wipe it?
A little saddle soap couldn't hurt.Quote:
