The third coat dried quickly in the heat, and found a can of Kiwi Wet Pruf paste in the shoeshine box. It's older than the now-grown children, and only a little around the edge of the can, but it was still pliable and looked and felt like it had beeswax. Buffed the belt, then applied the paste, rubbing it in and then buffing. Whether from age or ingredients, the paste felt tacky like beeswax. Had no dye rub-off. Given the amount of acrylic on it, thought the surface might crackle under bending, but it didn't. Due to the acrylic, applying the paste may have been wasted effort, but it's done.

Used cheap snaps that I had on hand instead of rivets. The snaps aren't holding as well as I like, but then again, they are cheap snaps. Wore it a few hours without rub off or bleed through, but that's not like wearing it all day.
