My jar comes tomorrow, and I will use it on a similar jacket. I might even mimic your ensemble.
Lookin’ good @Mrfrown!
Urad is magic. It greatly enhances the color and it's not sticky like Obenaufs or other beeswax based products.

Before - after

Hi Marc - that looks really great! Which Urad product did you use and how would you say it differs from Pecards, if you have had a chance to compare the two?

I haven't tried pecards but I did try obenaufs. Obenauf's can make a jacket look matte and it doesn't really enhance the color dept. Plus depending on the type of leather, it may take up to a week or two to fully dry. Urad is dry within minutes.

How is Buco more popular than this is one of the great mysteries of the world. This jacket destroys anything in its path!

I don't know. I finally found one that fit. Actually I found two that fit, so I'm kind of done with the motorcycle collection. At least for ones I want to wear, it doesn't get any better than this for me. I've only owned one buco.

So, it’s not soaking in to do anything? It is acting more like a shellac or varnish? Are your words from experience?
If what you say is true, it is an interesting product to use at the very end of a re-conditioning/rejuvenation project. I like Blackrock for CXL for the reason that it is wax based and gives that original matte luster.
