                  Ahahah what the hell is that music. I know it's premature but I gotta say I think LP is the winner…

                          This thread is the sort of thing that really sets Giles apart from other retailers.  Such a cool idea.  Thanks, G!

                            ^Amen to that! And I agree with Seul, LP for the win.

                                I think LP looks the best too, but olive oil is a close 2nd…

                                      +1 for LP. I think the olive oil looks good, but I'm not sold. Great results though. What a cool idea.

                                        I kinda dig the mustang paste. Nobody feeling it?

                                        Fat dudes need good clothes too.

                                          I like the color of the mustang but I feel like the oils would be pretty amazing on leather that is actually being used.

                                          Also, were the pastes/waxes applied then hit with a heat gun? I know this was a fun experiment but I'm just wondering.

                                            The Mustang Paste is a close second IMHO.
