Members PappysLeather Posted April 16, 2020 Members Report Posted April 16, 2020 What is your favorite leather protective covering? How do you apply it? I like Resoline or super Sheene. But when I apply them they remove some of the dye. Sometimes almost completely. Is this Norma? I have tried using air brush but I have not been able to get any of ,y three air brushes to spray. Quote
Members Norton Custom Leather Posted April 17, 2020 Members Report Posted April 17, 2020 yes normal. as the die rewets it will remove some. Quote
Members PappysLeather Posted April 18, 2020 Author Members Report Posted April 18, 2020 I have Had it remove so much it changed the color totally and down to the leather especially when using antique gels. Am I applying it wrong? Quote
Members Bayou Bengal Posted April 23, 2020 Members Report Posted April 23, 2020 I’ve never had that trouble except with close range aerosol leather sheen. I do cut it 50/50 with water, and I’ve started dipping it. No problems so far Quote

It is the cherry you put on top of a hot fudge sundae. There is no way it can take dye off a product that has been properly dyed and finished. May God bless, Dwight Quote
Members PappysLeather Posted April 24, 2020 Author Members Report Posted April 24, 2020 Dwight how are you applying it? I apply 8t with a damp sponge and it removes the die. Antiques I find to be worst. Quote
Members Hildebrand Posted April 24, 2020 Members Report Posted April 24, 2020 I apply with a 1” sponge paint brush no issues with dye removal. Todd Quote
Members Dwight Posted April 24, 2020 Members Report Posted April 24, 2020 I use a 1 inch wide Harbor Freight bristle brush, . . . they're about 50 cents each there. Never had a problem in over 15 years. May God bless, Dwight Quote
