Top coat question: Fiebing's Leather Balm

[splinters]

After doing some stitching and edge practice on natural veg-tan I decided to top coat it with Fiebing's Leather Balm. Found that I liked the way it applied, looks and feels but was wondering how it would work on carved and stamped work if not allowed to pool in low spots. If anyone has experience with that would you please let me know how it went?

Thanks

I use this a lot on my stuff. Including a wrist brace I've worn for almost two years. It's tooled and stamped and I've never had any issues with It. That's stuff is one of my go to products

I use it on embossed belts with no problem

Thanks very much gents. That was what I hoping and looking for.

I have been this for years with no problems. I also use the  leather balm/adam  wax   black and the ginger with great results

Would you explain the black and ginger part of your comment? I would like to know what that entails as I’m not familiar with it. Thanks.

first dye tour leather Black buff, then apply the leather balm/Adam wax/ black will give a high gloss finish.

the Ginger will give u a golden wax finish. also can put over a brown dye to get a darker brown gloss finish

i believe that Fiebing's  stopped making the black Leather Balm with atom wax or I wasn't able to find it anywhere. i was able to get a comparable item from Zack White but it looks they quite selling that item also.
