I added the rockers to his saddle bags and then he wanted a matching belt to go with it. I treated the rockers with SNO-SEAL to help with it being outdoor gear. I apply it generously and use heat gun to warm up leather and pull the sealer into the leather. Does anyone else use this or what do you use?

Yep , I don't use snow seal but I use basically the same thing. It works for a while. But the client has to be responsible and do it annually or even if they see that it is starting to retain moisture.

It works good, I have tried everything through the years. The oils work the best I think, a good hardy thick as molasses leather oil seems to work the best. Then after 24 hours of soaking that in I hit it with the waxes. but still it starts to dry out and must be maintained. Don't ever sell a bag as waterproof it will only be resistant. I also tend to put in metal or fiber glass bottoms and backers in my bags to keep from sagging if possible.

BUT

THAT BAG LOOKS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WOULD ROCK IT!!!!!!!
