Where in the finishing process do toy apply oil to the leather? Before stains, after? Neatsfoot or another oil type?

Neatsfoot after tooling before dying to put oils back in the leather. Some people use oil as a dye or finish. Olive oil etc and then sun tan. So really depends on what you are trying to do. Put on in light coats a little goes a long way.

After tooling and dyeing...If i oil it before the dye then the spirit dye I use will dry out that layer of oil too.

Oiling it before dying doesn't affect end color??
