The whole wallet is leather, do you mean the non-face side of the leather?  G

[Just_KC]

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

[mankarat]

treated with obenaufs very lightly.. dont put it too much.. Thats what i do with my RM tan wallet.. So far so good..3 months with one application

Picture when new

[jimmy]

is obenaufs gel like out of the bottle or hard as surf wax?

[babyknight]

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...

[jimmy]

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

[jacoavlu]

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.

[jimmy]

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

[elclintor]

It's solid stuff, but if you rub your thumb on it, it melts..

[jimmy]

Thats exactly what I wanted to hear to me that's quality. The heat of fiction while applying helps the penetration

[jimmy]

Haha did that just sound extremely rude

[jacoavlu]

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.

[zhivago]

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.

[jacoavlu]

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

[mvb]

maybe i can put it my hair as well

[Captain]

Anybody already owning a medium wallet wanting the new hardware, I might be interested in getting the one you got

[AFTRMTH]

Haha! Not rude, but funny if you read between the lines. lol

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!
