How do you guys dye, finish and waterproof/seal your saddlebags?

What products do you use and what are the steps you do it in?

Brad, there are several methods you can use. No one method is the correct one either..... to each his or her own, and what works for one, might not work for the other....

For me....

Dye: Dobber the black dye onto the leather, allow to dry, and do it again until all the white chalkish look is gone.

Finish: Either I finish with the "water proofer" or I finish it.... If finishing, I will use resoline or sheen.

Waterproofing: If I am water proofing something for my bike, these days I am not finishing the item, I am just applying Aussie Wax.... put it on, buff it in, and re-apply.... over and over.... and then re-apply when it needs it.
