Members Birchee Posted 6 hours ago Members Report Posted 6 hours ago (edited) I make some birch tar based leather conditioner and wax which some of you might be interested in, it is quite different from other conditioners and waxes. Leather Conditioner Ingredients Beeswax Jojoba Birch tar D-limonene Stabilizer (mix of antioxidants and tocopherols) Very strong smoky smell (smell of russia leather with a hint of oranges) imparted on the leather which fades down to slightly smoky after a week or so, lasts for up to a year. Penetrates well and has great resistance against water, salt, fungi, pests, and even rodents, long lasting. Does not overly soften, dries well and not tacky. Very stable, I have never seen it oxidize, and does not go rancid. Leather Wax Ingredients Beeswax Coconut oil Birch tar Stabilizer (mix of antioxidants and tocopherols) Much of the same benefits as the conditioner but not as good of penetration, beeswax stays at the top while some of the oils penetrate. Dries well, may be a little tack for a week or so after application. Designed to work with the conditioner. Both applied and leather is highly water resistant for up to a year and in some cases longer. $25 CAD for conditioner (4oz jar) $18 CAD for wax (4oz jar) Due to trump nuking the de minimis deal and setting additional duty fees I charge an additional 35% duty fee to cover the cost as it has to be pre-paid not passed to the receiver. These products perform extremely well in harsh environments but are not for everyone. They will darken leather significantly and the smell is intense until it fades.

You need to provide the following information. How much is shipping to various locations? Who do you use for national and international couriers? Quote
