Using Pecards with brown tint
For those of you that have used the Pecards with brown tint to darken leather, have any of you had any trouble with the color coming off on other stuff? I recently redyed a pair of boots, and the dye keeps coming off on the cuffs of my pantlegs (and on my tuckus when I sit on my heels!). I want to darken my belt a bit, but not if it going to rub off on my pants!

Brown Pecards is not a dye. It's just standard Pecards that has a brown tint to help blend into the brown of the leather you're rehydrating.
You're supposed to buff it completely off after it's had time to soak in. If you're leaving enough on the surface to rub off, you're either using WAY to much, or you're not buffing the area after application and soak-in is complete.
Like Strider, I've NEVER had this rub off.....same with the black. If you're doing the whole job, there's nothing TO rub off.
