Hi, i paint Louis Vuitton bags, but i seen in some that they are cracking when i paint them with fiebings leather dye, why is it the alcohol that dry them?

Most of the bags, i get are really in bad shape, handles are so dark from oils of the skin, and water spots.

Do u have any tips for me of what i can use so the leather don't crack on me i prepared with acetone 100% to open the pores, so it can take the paint, what paints do u recommend, dyes and acrylics.

And the steps i can take to prepared and paint.

And on acrylic what is best since some of them the pain get chipped on the corners
