kieranw7261 Report post Posted November 8, 2013 Hi there, I bought a leather bag from an online website that shipped direct from a factory in India. The bag arrived and is nice but it has this horrible finish. I found out later that the bag is coated in vegetable oil. It has a oil texture that I just cant stand to touch and Im half convinced it would rub off on my clothes. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on any way I could seal the leather or remove as much of the vegetable oil from the leather and then treat the leather with another product? If its not possible do you think that the bag will eventually loose the vegetable oil feel when worn for a while? Kind regards Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
