Members JRB Posted February 4, 2009 Members Report Posted February 4, 2009 What are the advantages/disadvantages of Fiebing's Leather Dye vs. Fiebing's Pro. Oil Dye? Is Neatsfoot Oil recommended for use w/both? I am using it for holsters and plan to put Weaver Tuff Kote as a top finish (if I can get it). Quote ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ
Members Studio-N Posted February 5, 2009 Members Report Posted February 5, 2009 The pro-oil dye has a conditioner in it. Whether it is neatsfoot oil I don't know. It doesn't dry out the leather in the same way the spirit dyes do, but it does take a lot longer to dry. I usually use it on something made for outside use. I (use to) use neat-lac over the item then some Aussie conditioner with beeswax over that. I'm not sure what I'm going to use once I run out of Neat-lac. I'm sure others will join in with some good suggestions. Cheers! Quote "Out of my mind.....back in 5 minutes"
