JLSleather Report post Posted January 30, 2017 Yeah, I was thinking more along the lines of some type of oil in the leather (from thumb?)... but that don't explain the different color on teh "flaps" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OLDNSLOW Report post Posted January 30, 2017 was it oiled with something before you got it that caused a shift or acted like a blocker? Was it a known type of leather or was it a mystery leather? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLSleather Report post Posted January 30, 2017 A grade HO. I'm assuming that something got IN the leather.. not sure what or when. No discoloration prior to use. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carguy4471 Report post Posted February 7, 2017 Molding firearm was wrapped in saran wrap. Die looked great prior to molding. I did use bare thumbs to for the holster, could the wet leather have transferred oil from my hand at that point? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
