Members ShortBBL Posted March 31, 2011 Members Report Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) Guys and Gals.... I don't know what's happening here but no matter what, my stuff is turning up way too dark lately! I'm using 100% Neatsfoot oil and the last 5 or 6 holsters I made have been just nasty dark from the oil! I'm now wondering if it's the leather or something!? The ones shown below were just super-lightly coated with neatsfoot... I mean just enough so the leather looked like it was covered... no heavy dose or anything... and after they dried for 6 or 8 hours... they look like this!! Ugh.... I'm not too happy. Any ideas?

terrymac Posted March 31, 2011 Report Posted March 31, 2011 I, also, did not like the way neatsffot oil darkened the leather. I am now using Bee's natural saddle oil, and there is no darkening, at all. This is some good stuff!! Actually gives the leather a golden tone. I went to their website and ordered as no one in this country had ever heard of it. Terry Quote
