@WHS Check this out:

You might want to know that actual images are preferred on this site, as they don't get "un-linked."

@Brittanycrystal Maybe you should list it under "Items For Sale" here on this site. Photos will really help. -

I can do that... the image was not downloadable, so I used a screen shot.

That is quite a nice briefcase. Good work!

@FrenchMich That is very nice!

How about using a little saddle soap? I prefer using this foam...

I use pre-dyed chrome-tanned leather almost exclusively, so as you assumed, I have never had this issue when using tokonole. I use a swab, careful not over-saturate it, and apply 2-3 thin coats to my edges. Fortunately, I've never had any end up on the surface of the leather. Below is what the swabs look like. They are used for cleaning printers and lenses, so there are no fibers to leave behind.

@EdJ That is gorgeous, just like brand new. I don't know much about buggies, but I know that some were manufactured by companies that later developed automobiles. So I'd like to ask: What make is it?

I line everything I do, and often wonder if the extra work and cost in materials really add value, but if I don't add the lining the item feels "unfinished."

I've used this tip with a wood-burning tool. Gave the edges a finished look without being too fancy.

Enough said.

That document's properties indicate that it's from 2015. When you look at this Safety Data Sheet from the Lexol website, updated in June of this year, you'll see that it is formatted quite differently. "Ingredients" are on page 12. Hope you find this informative. SDS_Lexol_Neatsfoot_Leather_Conditioner_US_en_2020_06_09.pdf

I tried that link, and my computer warned me that it was not a secure site, so I did not click through. So I looked around the internet, and guess what? It turns out that there is more than one MSDS for Lexol Leather Conditioner (they have been published at different times), so for the sake of argument, please post the a PDF of the MSDS that you are referring to so we can see what you are talking about. Thank you.

...and the earth looks really flat from here.

Chocolate syrup--100%; chocolate milk--5-10%.

That is exactly what has happened in my area. A store that sells leather clothing and bags (think motorcycle) also carries a limited supply of Tandy branded leather and supplies.

This pattern, and many more incredible designs, are available on his website at Etsy. https://www.etsy.com/shop/leatherhubpatterns/

Oil tanned (or chrome tanned) leathers make up the bulk of what I use, and this is my favorite edge finish for that type of leather. I have tried other ways... I have burnished with wood, with felt, with canvas, with denim; I have applied a variety of edge finishes, including saddle soap, gum tragacanth and edge paint; I even purchased a heating iron for smoothing Fenice edge paint. All in all, tokonole is easy to apply, easy to clean up, does not bleed, and wears well.

In a word... tokonole. It is a leather finish burnishing gum. Comes in black, brown and clear. Water based, easy to apply, smooth finish.
