Case Treatment

[Floater1]

I have a Justis pro lite case and am looking for advice regarding a product for treating the leather. Not looking for a cleaner; rather, a product for maintaining the leather, keeping it smooth and subtle without damaging the leather. All responses appreciated!

You posted in the wrong section...try the Main Forum or Cue Case Forum or call Jack Justis directly (954) 974-5614. There is nothing for sale here.

Nope, not recommended. It works fine on chrome tanned (automotive leathers) but not so much on Veg tanned.

Use KIWI paste type shoe poish in the round cans available from any grocer or drug store.

Absolutely...

Best stuff out there. Use it for my boots and saddles.

Skidmore's leather cream treatment. I used it on a Instroke Buffalo case I have and it worked fantastic. The light buffalo leather did get a few shades darker which was expected. I use this on my motorcycle seats and it preserves and prevents drying/cracking but also repels water. Very good stuff.

Agree with Kiwi shoe polish. The good thing is the number of colors they come in, especially with an Ebay search. Even mahogany, no problem.

All the best,

Anything with wax will eventually create drying & cracking.

You want something that conditions without over softening, I highly recommend Bicks #4 again.

Jack Justis told you what to use in Post #6. I would listen to Jack as he made the case and no one else. They sell the Kiwi Paste (Neutral/Clear at Wallmart.

I've used KIWI in the past but switched over to Renaissance Wax for about 10 years.. As I've stated before, the stuff is very versatile and very safe for just about any surface.

The Skidmore's product I recommend is actually a cream. Best leather treatment product known to man. Bar none.

I used 303 Protectant on my tube JJ case. Looks great.
