rmr Report post Posted October 9, 2014 For one reason or another- I had purchased bag coat several years ago. I was going to place it on some veg tanned leather that has been stained saddle brown with an oil based leather dye. I like how the bag coat darkens the stained leather just a little more. My question is: what is the intended purpose of bag kote?? Is it to darken leather, is it a conditioner or is it a top coat? Do I need to still apply some form of top coat over it?? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King's X Report post Posted October 10, 2014 I use it after applying my antique as a top coat. After it dries, I buff it. I have never really noticed that it darkens my leather. Thanks for letting me know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
