  1. Thank you all for the answers! I'll give lemon juice a try to see if that cleans it up for him. I also make a lot of leather journals for people, so this is very good to know. I can see a lot of sad people with stained journals after sitting down to write at an outdoor cafe. To the other part of my question, will a quality finish prevent this? I could test myself, but I'd rather save the leather and live by the adage "a wise man learns from his own mistakes, a smart man learns from someone else's".
  2. Here is a picture of the wallet. Don't know why it wouldn't go up before.
  3. I'm having an issue with my leather stripping paint off of metal. At first, I only had it happen with a measuring square so I figured it was just a crappy paint, but recently a friend placed his wallet down on one of those outdoor expanded metal tables and it came off with a stained imprint of the grate. Has anyone had a similar issue, and found a correlation between different finishes/leathers and protection from staining? I'm using pretty bottom-end veg tan from Tandy (Oak-leaf and the like). The measuring square was used on only natural veg-tan, and the wallet was darkened with olive oil and otherwise unfinished. For other products I finish with Neat-Lac or beeswax. Would include pictures, but can't figure it out.
