Cleveland Mobile 14 Report post Posted December 16, 2004 Thompsans Water Seal....doesnt work for crap on decks but works great on shoes...give it one coat let them sit overnight and another coat in the morning. Works better than anything else i've tried. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aplus 525 Report post Posted December 16, 2004 I used to use mink oil. Now I use silicon spray in a can. Keeps the leather soft and water resistant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squirtgun 122 Report post Posted December 16, 2004 It's not the use of Thompsons alone that make you a redneck.You officially joined the club when you used it to waterproof your boots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aplus 525 Report post Posted December 17, 2004 You know you're a redneck if you clean your ears out with your car keys. That and the Thompsons issue together, certainly qualify one as a redneck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
