Neatlac Vs. Tan-Kote

Recommended Posts

Ok, now that I have some Neatlac, I'm curious which is the better overall finish for tooled leather. I don't usually dye much of anything, and I've been using Tan-Kote to seal up my basket stamp.

I did discover that "well ventilated" means GO OUTSIDE with the Neatlac... HOLY COW!!! My shop is a room in the house. DO NOT Neatlac in the house... lol :eusa_naughty:

Anyway, thanks for any input!!

Neatlaq is a far more durable finish than tan Kote. Tan Kote is better for something you want to stay more soft (comparing a tooled purse to a dog colar).

But, what I do: Tool your item. Seal it with a full coat of Neatlaq. Antique it with Fiebings paste. Seal it with Tan Kote.
