Sheilajeanne

You're welcome, Sheilajeanne . . . I didn't say so on my post . . . but I had to re-make a couple of expensive holsters before I figured out what was going on . . . and believe me . . . I was not a happy camper.

I go to a store here, Harbor Freight, and buy their little cheap bristle brushes . . .  I guess they're paint brushes . . . or maybe cleaning brushes . . . wooden handle, bristle hair . . . about 50 cents apiece.  I dip one in the neatsfoot oil . . . and just wet the hair side of the leather . . . evenly all over . . . hang it up and leave it for at least 24 hours . . . and by then it usually is very very close to the original color before you oiled it.

Then just dye as you usually do . . .  which for me is dip dye . . . shake . . . wipe with paper towel to get rid of puddles . . . 

Have fun . . . may God bless,

Dwight
