Belt Finishing Help!

[Chris of WV]

Bob's tutorial is available via link from this website. Go to the "How do I do that" section and look for his tutorial- his member name is Hidepounder.

If you've got wax build up in the crevices, you can pick out some of it, but why not just melt it? Then take a brush to it.

And with your bonus money, get a bottle of Mop-n-Glo.

Hey TwinOaks,

Do you mean Mop-n-Glo, like the regular floor cleaner? What can it do, and how do I apply it and finish it?

Thanks,

Chris

Yep, floor polish which is ....acrylic wax......$5/ 32oz bottle

Fiebing's Resolene....acrylic wax......$5 / 4oz bottle

Cut 50/50 w/ water, spray (works best) or wipe on, let dry, buff, add second light coat, let dry, use as is or add additional coating of neutral shoe polish. Don't build up a lot of it on the leather- just a spray or wipe. Thank you Katsass for the formula.

It seals the leather and after an initial 'tacky' feel, kinda smooths out so there's no plastic feel to it. I did my leatherman case 3 years ago w/ resolene and except for the damage from rubbing on a bucket (aerial bucket truck), the leather looks just as good as back then.

Well, I will definitely have to give this a try... Thanks to both you and katsass for the information!
