I used the super shene stuff and I think it did the trick. It really does make it look very shiny. So far no red marks, but only time will tell.

Yeah, it has been about two months or so for mine I guess. I haven't ruined any shirts yet because I won't wear the bag until I know it won't stain. I guess I could check out the possibility of a sealer of some sort. I'm sorry to hear about your ruined shirts John, but I'm glad you could help me out...

I made a bag strap for my mkvii and at first it left little red crumbles on my shirt. I gave it some pecards and now it leaves a red smudge. Any recommendations about avoiding this?
Thanks,

Joel
