gtsaucke Report post Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) Hi All! I just finished my first piece of work (picture of me holding the wallet). I came across this picture of a wallet when i was looking for inspiration and i just want to know if there is a product i can use to "buff/shine" the leather i used for my wallet. Maybe it's not possible because of the type of leather i used, but i'm hoping that's not the case. I just really like the sheen on this wallet and would like to apply it to my wallet. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Wallet finish i'd like to do with mine (Click here to see a pic) Edited May 21, 2019 by gtsaucke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue duck Report post Posted May 21, 2019 Can you tell us what kind of leather you did use? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gtsaucke Report post Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) @blue duck I'm not sure. It was a large piece of scrap in a bin at my local leather store. :-( Does that likely mean it won't shine up if it's a certain type of leather?

garypl Report post Posted May 22, 2019 Looks pretty smooth leather - I would try an acrylic finish like Resolene or even Mop N Glo. Another option is Fiebings Atom Wax - 2 or 3 coats of this will give a nice shine. Gary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great options. i'll head down to the store to see if I can see examples. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
