Why You’ll Love It: Resolene is the topcoat we reach for when a piece has to survive the real world. It goes on thin, dries clear, and puts a flexible acrylic seal over your dye so it stops rubbing off on shirts, jeans and truck seats. If you have ever handed somebody a black belt and watched it mark up their pants, this is the fix. Key Specs: Type: Acrylic resin finish and sealer Sizes: 4 oz and 32 oz Finish: Satin sheen, dries clear Coverage: Thin coats, two or three passes Cleanup: Water while wet Things to Know Before You Buy: Cut it with water, about half and half, before you apply it. Straight out of the bottle it goes on too heavy and can streak or look plastic Two or three thin coats beat one thick one every time Let each coat flash off before the next Test on scrap first if you are working over a heavy antique or a resist Best For: Belts, holsters, dog collars and anything that rides against clothing Sealing dye so it stops transferring Gear that sees weather and needs water resistance Any piece where you want a little sheen without a glassy shine More About This Product: Most finish problems come from putting it on too thick. Thin it, build it in light coats, and Resolene gives you a durable flexible film that moves with the leather instead of cracking off it. It stays put through weather and wear, which is why it has been a standard on the bench for as long as most of us have been doing this.
