  1. I line my collars with Napa leather ( glue and stitch).. And am wondering if I condition leather before dyeing it will the neatsfoot oil prevent the glue from sticking to the lining?

      as long as you don't over oil (saturate) the vegtan, and give it sufficient time to evenly spread through the leather you should be fine. Also, only condition the grain side, not dip. Sage advice from this site: "Stop oiling about 3 coats before you think it has enough."
