Fiebings Tan-Kote (4oz) - Resin Based, Easy-to-Use Top Finish Creates a Mellow Gloss and Rich Shine

Works great. Its a bit on the thick side, so its more difficult to get an even coat if your project isnt one smooth piece.

From my understanding this product is designed to be applied once all dye and antique is done to protect the finished product and condition the leather. It is not designed to waterproof leather at all. If you are painting designs into tooling leather, use Super Sheen on the painted areas to prevent antique or stains from discoloring. Once all is dry, Tan-Kote could be the final finishing product applied. If you are antique tooling on leather, apply antique stain then if you do not want other colors to bleed into that area, apply the Super Sheen. Super Sheen is a finish conditioner in itself, but can also be used as the final finish to condition leather, but its magic is in protecting areas you have painted or stained or antique that you dont want to change. If you have completed all your dye, staining and/or antique, use Tan-Kote as the final finish to protect and condition leather project. It is a great product, but should not be confused with super sheen nor waterproofing. To waterproof, use mink oil or neatfoot oil or product with those abilities that can also condition but is more to restore, condition and waterproof.

I bought it to put a shiny finish on a black belt I made, but it went on too thick and not did not dry to a smooth finish. I ended up removing it with alcohol. I used a sponge brush to apply. Whether the reason is that I didnt do it correctly or something else, Im not going to use what is left on any other projects I make.

Great for leather ,shows detail in finished product.

Works well

BEWARE! This stuff will not keep your dye from coming off the leather if it gets wet! My saddle literally had black running off it when I got caught in the rain and I coated it with three coats of the stuff when I redyed it! it never says it is water proof and I thought it would be.

This is the best leather dressing I have ever used. Be warned that it will darken your leather and dry to a shine. I use it on my boots to waterproof them and shine them up and they look great. I use a small foam brush to apply it in an even coat and let it dry for a few hours.

I love this product as a top coat for saddles. Its not a waterproofer , but it does put a beautiful glossy finish onto the leather.

This stuff will seal your leather projects completely. Dont shake the bottle prior to using. I have used a wool dauber s well as cotton cloth to apply, and ended up super happy with its sealing properties

Quick ship. Works great
