The NeatLac spray cans are real handy however I recommend utilizing the wool skin. It doesn't matter whether you spray directly to your leather, in the cap and dip it or directly onto the wool skin. The important thing is to get good, even and complete coverage before it dries. Work in steps if you need to.

I just bought some Bee Natural oil and applied it over some Eco Flo dyed test coupons today. I let the leather dry for about 4 hours (they are 1.5" round cutouts for sake of testing) and then applied the #1 saddle oil. No real discoloration noticeable.

BTW, I checked out the Harbor freight airbrush kit mentioned and it is on sale for $15. Does this thing really work well? I've got burned from them before, but then again I can't justify spending a ton of money for a pro quality airbrush at this point. I want an airbrush to apply dye mainly. I want to get that faded out look or " dark around the edges" look. I may want to do fine detail at some point to accent tooling and do some background darkening.

Thanks,

~Ken
