FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION

what is oil tanned leather?

Oil tanned leather is a type of leather that undergoes a special tanning process where oils and waxes are infused into the hide during treatment. This process enhances the leather's durability, flexibility, and water resistance, giving it a soft and smooth texture. The result is a supple, slightly glossy material that develops a beautiful patina over time. This leather is highly valued for its strength and is commonly used in crafting bags, boots, furniture, and other durable goods.

can you burnish oil tanned leather?

Burnishing oil tanned leather can be challenging due to the oils and waxes on its surface, which make it softer and less likely to hold a polished edge. While burnishing is possible, the edges may not achieve the same high-gloss finish as vegetable-tanned leather. For better results, lightly sand the edges to smooth them and apply an edge finish product.

how to care for oil tanned leather?

To care for oil tanned leather, clean it gently with a damp cloth to remove dirt and stains. Avoid soaking the leather, as too much water can affect its texture. Use a leather cleaner or mild soap for deeper cleaning if necessary. Once clean, condition the leather with a high-quality leather conditioner to keep it soft and prevent cracking. Store the leather in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its quality over time.

how to polish oil tanned leather​?

To polish oil-tanned leather, first clean the surface with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Once dry, apply a small amount of leather oil or wax using a soft cloth and rub it in with circular motions.

Avoid using excessive polish, as the oils in the leather already provide a natural gloss.
