Default Re:NOOOOOOOO.......NEVER!!!

Check the ingredients in Hide Chow (what is it called?) and see if it is basically petroleum based solvents. I can not conceive of what good it could possibly do for a holster except make it glisten a bit. I have read lots of research reports, garnered a degree in chem, worked in chem labs, tried to recover dozens of oily holsters and spent time preserving leather as old as 250 years for a museum and evertime I ask someone why the goo they put on THEIR holsters is so wonderful, they always say, I have used it for years and it works for me. They never can explain what "works for me" means. Their leather holsters, on the other hand, are dark and crumbling.


Be warned.
