      yup, the non face side. that described it better. yeah, its best to avoid getting that spot wet with any form of liquid.

            jimmy, the Obenauf's leather oil is neither gel nor wax-like… it's literally like oil.  not sure about the other products.

            btw thanks Just_KC and mankarat for the thoughts re adding oil.  For now I am thinking I will not bother adding any coating of oil to start with at least but will see how it goes...

              thanks, never actually used a liquid leather treatment before. may have to give it a go.

                I think more people around here referring to Obenauf's are speaking of the LP and not the oil. The LP comes in a jar and is more of a paste or soft wax you rub in with your fingers.

                  Yeah that's what I was referring to. So is it more soft or hard? Soft would be you can push your finger though and touch the bottom of the jar

                          I think the LP is a wax/oil mix, it's certainly a wax, but soft like a pommade. Could you push your finger through to the bottom of the jar? Maybe. Probably. But I wouldn't characterize it as a gel.

                            Just a little side note, this stuff was created in the Pac northwest where I live and folks (myself include) have sworn/used it for as long as I can remember.  I have even used it as chap stick in a pinch, the stuff is very "kind" too say the least.

                              hmm, hadn't thought of that, but I think it is much beeswax, and the smell is not bad

                                        just received my IH-FW tan and, put simply, this thing is stunning.  IH signature tough while somehow also being soft to the touch.  WHAT A WALLET!
