Fine Leather success rates

[Tammer]

Ok, so far I've tried twice to make fine leather using rose tinted tanning fluid. Both times I got normal leather. I am wondering how much success other people are having. Is success rare?

To be clear, I am trying to make fine leather by

distilling 10 roses in a steam distiller
combining the otto of rose with a bucket of 10L of cotton seed oil
then putting the 5% solution in a tub with a limed hide.

At high enough concentrations you can guarantee success.

Ok I found that note about higher concentrations.

Your chance of getting Fine Leather rather than ordinary Leather increases with concentration of the Otto.

I was already thinking that 40 distiller hours of rose processing for 1 fine leather was a bit too much. If it is more like 400...

[DarkNacht]

Because its an end game resource it is meant to be hard to get.

[JohnCarver]

Its very low even at higher concentrations.

That is not exactly true.

Just out of curiosity, what's the minimum concentration that will even start the tanning process? Is it 5% like with normal tanning fluid?

[JohnCarver]

Minimum success is 5% but unlike other fluids the rose tanning solution can go to 50%.

[DarkNacht]

Its very low even at higher concentrations.

That is not exactly true.

Well yes I'm sure at high enough concentrations you can get a decent success rate.

[JohnCarver]

Well yes I'm sure at high enough concentrations you can get a decent success rate.

Still not exactly true. At high enough concentrations you can guarantee success.

Well yes I'm sure at high enough concentrations you can get a decent success rate.

Still not exactly true. At high enough concentrations you can guarantee success.

dat wild card!
