You finally figured out what everyone was telling you Congrats!!! Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on.

I have no idea only you can tell us that, it isn't my thread nor was it my question. I don't understand why you are so defensive about everything? folks have just been trying to help you. You argued you don't want to waste 25 bucks on leather but will happily waste it on a brand name sealer. Spend two or three days now arguing the point and being vehemently against the thought then realize you are using it anyway. Anyway back on topic. I have some eco sheen its ok and you can dilute as you wish, its an acrylic sealer, I have some pledge future acrylic floor wax its ok too absolutely no difference between the two. I use them only as a resist for staining my tooling when i need to. All the rest of the time I don't use any of the crap on my stuff. I like more natural finishes on my work as do my customers. You may want to rethink the whole process or even if acrylic is what you need for your project if your goodie flexes it will most likely crack at some point using an acrylic sealer. As we don't know what you projects are we cant help with that.

I mix it 50/50 with water to thin it.

It's a choice I made and a choice you have made. I don't care what you say about Mop and Glo, I'M CHOOSING NOT TO USE IT. I'm only sticking with sealers that are traditional leather sealers, you don't have to agree with it. Also, a little bottle of leather sealer goes a long way. I only spread a thin layer on top of the leather. You still refuse to quite get it when you try to make snarky points. I don't use resolene for the SAME REASON you don't want to use it. It's creates that plastic look. I do use M&G for the opposite reason, because it DOES NOT produce the plastic look that you also don't want. Which was one of your reasons for looking at other sealers. The differences in the two are a feature for me, not a bug. I don't care what it's sold for. it does exactly what I want it too. You care too much what it's sold for, even if it DOES NOT do what you want it too. Your belligerent nature in sticking to your guns is impressive though.

I'm not being defensive when I'm forced to repeat myself over and over again that I'm not going to use Mop and Glo when people keep talking about it after I said I'm not going to use it 3rd post into this thread. I think some here are treating Mop and Glo like a religion. And I don't have a reason to believe something like Eco Flo Satin Sheen is the same thing as Mop and Glo. Because they aren't really the same product as they are made up of different chemicals for different purposes. Just because both have acrylic in it doesn't mean they're the same thing. What "natural finish" do you use, or do you mean you don't put a finish on it? My products are arm and shoulder gauntlets that you tie off via paracord through grommets and have spots and spikes and other things on them.

I just don’t know how many ways I can politely decline to use a particular product that has nothing to do with this thread. Mop and Glo seems to be treated as a religion though. People are free to use it if they want.

Most of my products are for outdoor use so they get finishes that are more designed for that criteria. More like you would apply to boots for example. Sounds like roll playing gear? I don't know how well hot sweaty skin would react to an acrylic sealer or if allergies might be a problem. if they are made to flex or get beaten on I doubt you will be happy in the long run with acrylic either. If they are going to be hard like armor then you may want to look into boiled leather I doubt it would need much sealer besides maybe some beeswax or some such natural finish. Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on.

Just leather prop replicas with spots and some spikes. I’ve already used eco Flo satin sheen that worked fine 10 years on. Will experiment cutting it 50/50 with water. I use pro dye, so less chance of dye rub off.
