I have to look into the differences between the tan kote, bag Kote and resolene. I have been having good luck since I thoroughly cleaned the brush and made a new batch of resolene. The new batch I did with distilled water, 60% ish water and filtered through a coffee filter on its way to the jar. I also set the pressure up to about 40lbs on my compressor when spraying resolene now. Only issue now is ... since its cut so much it is really matte. Upside is, you can wet the leather pretty well without worrying about putting on to much resolene and it drys fast. So far it does what I need ... seal in the color and protect the leather. I have checked and there is no color rub and its fairly water repellent but .. I do miss having a bit more sheen.

I only use the HF brush for resolene. I have an Iwata eclipse I use for dye's and for finer painting work. I figure for 15 bucks if I trash the HF I can just throw it away but it is still going strong a year later.
