Alf, Not a problem...I would write more but I am busy with getting packed for a move to my Summer home!

Dow, I have or had a Friend, Jack Hiles who loved the stuff on holsters, pistols, wood stocks..whatever. I guess a wax is ok....I just hate to start slathering on waxes, oils, creams or anything else without seriously considering what it's for, how the material will react and how do I reverse the process if it prooves to be damaging.
On a pistol Renwax would not soak in but be a repellant. Might be good. On a holster it will soak in somewhat. Good? Who knows. What good will it do? What is it supposed to do? Why would you put it on if you have not thought out the answers to these questions, like how or will I even be able to get it off?
I always go back to the mantra of do not apply anything. I know there are certain cases where it seems prudent to apply something to soften the surface or a hinge or closure strap. Each time I have to asses every case.
Be carefull.....Think before you act~
