Hunting in buckskins
Justin Snyder:
Some commercial tanners sell smoked leather. It is tanned in the commercial manner, but smoked to change the color. I cant tell you why it didn't work on yours, but smoke will color anything on the surface at least. If they are commercial tanned they are already about as waterproof as they will get without some harsh chemical treatment. Justin

I had to do some cutting because the legs and arms were a bit to long, tryed on those and the coconut oil looks like the tiket, I was thinking about "montana pich blend" but I only have half a can left, and that's not quite enought
El Destructo:
I bet the Coconut Oil will work....I have also darkened Leather with Olive Oil too....worked good
NOMADIC PIRATE:
Did darken them a bit with coconut oil, now i look like when you leave the mustard bottle open and it dries out a bit ;D ::) ;D ::)
Just got back from an evening hunt wearing my newly dark mustard color skins, the problem tonite was the smell, I got into a lot of pigs but got busted like never before, I was hoping that the smokey smell would fool the pigs a bit, no way the buggers wher taking of like I've never seen before. .....better make sure i get rid of the smoky smell before I take thenm back into the woods.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks
