Thanks bikermut07 and OneCrow. OneCrow, you mentioned Snow Seal and then Resolene. I didn't realize you could put acrylic or Resolene on leather after it had oil or Snow Seal put on it...I had assumed those conditioners would prevent the acrylic from sticking to the leather. So, I thought something like Snow Seal would be the finishing product used. You don't have any problem putting Resolene on top of Snow Seal? Thanks.

Hi, I'm a little perplexed about which finishing products to use for various projects. For example, I see people carve and dye leather, then put an acrylic finish on it. Other times they dye and then put a leather conditioner or something like Snow Seal conditioner on it. Some talk about acrylic resolene. If someone uses acrylic, then 6 months from now wants to put some conditioner on the leather, you cant do that because the acrylic blocks the conditioner from working into the leather...so how would you ever condition old projects that have acrylic on them? What would you finish the following project with? And how would you go about conditioning the leather months from now? Book cover, knife sheath, motorcycle seat, purse, belt, key chain fob, guitar strap? Thanks
