Re: Holster Repair
Johnny, Exactly. I do not treat any leather sent to me except by the express permission of the owner. Many people I have had dealing with over the years tell me to do whatever I decide to repair and preserve their holster. As you know there is a great debate over what to use and how much.Many people I talk with are confused about this important subject. Hell, I'm confused about it sometimes. Quite a few of the potions I've come accross employ bee's wax and that substance can attract microscopic bugs that are not good for leather. It is unfortunate that most potions and creams do not list their ingredients. That would go a long way towards making a decision. I have never used Pecards because I have never come accross any and many of the things I do use I acquired years ago and was satisfied so found no need to try anything else. I seem to remember that the customer in this case told me he had treated it with Pecards before sending it to me to soften it up. You must be careful before treating a holster you intend to work on as there are many pitfalls that can pester you dealing with a treated holster while repairing it. Depending on what you use it could be a bad move. Sorry about the confusion. Jerry Burney
