You are right Geneva- I've tried just about everything, except for setting the whole hide on fire! Thanks for the response everyone.

I know this is an old post, but I hope someone can help me. I'm working with a Black Stone Oil Leather from Tandy and no matter how much I clean and rub it, black dye keeps coming off on my rags. Will Resolene help to stop dye transfer? Any suggestions? I know one of the first suggestions is to never buy Stone Oil Leather from Tandy's again. I usually get Utility Leather but black has been very hard to find in a 4+ oz. and I made the mistake of buying this.

Will Aussie or Skidmore work well for Pull-up and Utility leather? Can I apply it over stitching with upholstery thread without messing the thread up? Some of my designs call for a contrasting natural color thread on black or brown leather and I need a conditioner that smooth's out the pressure foot marks that my sewing machine leaves behind. I've been using Tandy's Pull-up additive that works well, but it doesn't help to protect the finish of the leather from scratches and drying out.
