Big Norm,


I have used Pecards in the past and it is good stuff, but I normally use Lexol. The Lexol is a water based product and I have been "hit" hard about using a water based preservative. My opinion on Lexol with water is that the holster was tanned for use in any type weather including rain. The Lexol, when used sparingly, will indeed put a very small amount of water on the surface and some will/may soak into the leather carrying the conditioner with it. the water will then evaporate and leave the conditioner. After an overnight drying period, I will lightly buff the leather and it looks great then. I only do this one time before storage to keep it preserved. I have holsters treated this way 7 years ago and they look great today. The most important thing to remember is to keep them in a dark, cool, low humidity area and they should last many lifetimes.


I think that either Lexol or Pecards are both good products.
