Members yankeefan Posted September 10, 2009 Members Report Posted September 10, 2009 Hi, I would like to make placemats, and wonder what is the best sealant/protector to use to protect them from the spills of dining? Thanks for your wisdom! Quote
Members jbird Posted September 10, 2009 Members Report Posted September 10, 2009 Howdy this is a bit of a hard deal but I think neat lac or clear lac would be your best bet how ever it's not a easy thing to seal leather totaly with time it will wear and stain but lac is your best bet.

Moderator bruce johnson Posted September 10, 2009 Moderator Report Posted September 10, 2009 We make quite a few sets and have our own in use for at least 6 years. Mine have a chap leather body and tooled leather side borders. We have used Leathersheen or Supersheen on them. One good coat sponged on and then 3-5 light applications as things dry. They wipe off well and have held up. We haven't had a problem with the finish cracking either like you might expect.
