I used a 320 sandpaper sponge to work over the entire jacket, especially the areas I didn't want much distressing.
I then used 220 Sandpaper to do the rest of the areas I wanted a stronger distressing. Finished it up my using some brown Kiwi shoe polish on the distressed areas.
I'm not finished, but I'm taking my time, to avoid any regrets.
see, I don't understand.. that jacket has a large collar, but it's not terribly pointy like a lot of the LC wested's that I see. is the very pointy thing something new? or something old?
