Fiebing's Question
Re: Fiebing's Question
A true analine dye is chemical rather pigment based and they are increasingly hard to find because of health and safety concerns. You are unlikely to find analines outside of a tannery.
That being said a lot of people use Fiebings dyes with USMC black being top of the list for contrast, thier Institutional dye is a non toxic water/acrylic dye which has very little penetrating power.

Re: Fiebing's Question
Yes, aniline dyes are safe according to pipedia. Just make sure you're getting alcohol based instead of oil based.
