Carnuba Wax Over Neatsfoot Oil

[desertw0lf]

Have a question - can I dye a product, oil it up with Neatsfoot oil, and then use Carnuba wax as a final finish without using eco-flo or other type of acrylic topcoat?

So :

Eco-Flo Black Dye,

Good coating of neatsfoot,

Rubdown with Carnuba wax, and buff with a microfiber cloth?

Or is that not enough for say, an IWB holster?

I have used carnauba wax for many things. It is a great product and is considered a hard wax I believe.

Not sure it would wear as well on, say a holster as a topcoat. My preference would be to use the wax "after" applying the topcoat.

You would want to allow the topcoat to become very well cured.
