Northmount Posted May 30, 2014 Report Posted May 30, 2014 Do a test, see if warming up the leather melts the white residue. If it does, it is wax. Warming it up and buffing it will remove the excess wax. Do a search, there are other threads about wax rising to the surface. Tom Quote
Members needles Posted June 3, 2014 Members Report Posted June 3, 2014 it might be leather spew, which happens when the tallow or fat liqours which are (used to replace the lost leather fats whilst it was worked in the tannery, making it supple again) these can distabalise and rise to the surface, they feel slightly greasy and are difficultto remove and keep down, if it is spew you need to apply a stabalisng solution, then it will be back to normal. thats is of course if it is spew Quote
