cpwlew,
* You let the excess dry and buff it again. Repeat as necessary.
* I apply as if I was spit-shining a shoe. Brings back memories from days of yore!! Tap 2 forefinger pads onto the Pecard & apply to the leather exterior in small circular motions. One layer. Let it thoroughly dry. I usually let a PT sit for 24 Hrs. minimum after this light application. Then buff. Yields a warm soft apearance to the exterior. If I want a glossier shine, a ladies nylon to buff the already buffed surface does wonders. Done about once a year..some twice.
* If the leather is soft or very dry to begin with, I haven't found a way to resuscitate this to a rock hard, glossy new appearance using Pecards. Pecards will, however, bring "moisture" back to the dry leather.
* Secret is patience. Many PT's did not get into rough shape overnight. They have to be retrieved slowly. Use Pecards very sparingly to let the leather breath in the "nutrients".
