Conditioning / Polishing Aldens
Posted: Tue Apr 29, 2003 5:59 pm
I've read several posts where many have indicated they've used Pecards or other products on their Aldens. A few questions:
1) Did you use the leather dressing or the motorcycle version? From what I've read in postings, the Pecard's leather dressing makes things heavier, so I though maybe the motorcycle version would be lighter.
2) Has anyone tried other colours of Meltonian other than the reddish stuff they include with the boots? I was at a leather shop the other day and they had dark brown, medium brown, London brown, and a ton of other, non-reddish brown colours. If one applies this over the existing pumpkin (IMHO whatever they choose to call it, it really is pumpkin) colour, does it help tone over the boots to more of an appropriate colour?
Thanks.
