bikermutt07 Report post Posted May 15, 2016 I am a complete novice. That being said I use fiebings leather sheen. I have it in gloss, but I believe it comes in matte. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TwinOaks Report post Posted May 16, 2016 You might also check out "Deft", which is a spray lacquer used in some woodwork. I got mine at Lowe's, and it's available in matte, semi, and gloss. It seals the leather as well as any of the spray lacquers sold for the leather industries....meaning that I spray it onto a piece of shearling and rub it into the leather instead of spraying directly onto the leather (which can result in unwanted build-up).
