Can I apply on Waterproof oily leather boots as an extra seal?

You can used on oiled leather, it's beeswax and that is used on oiled leather as a moisturizer. Can change leather darker according to label. I work as delivery driver and put this on New Balance tennis shoes and it works really good considering they were never meant to be waterproof. I apply and heat mine up on the lowest setting in the oven.

Of course, just make sure to melt it in with a hair dryer. I use it on every pair of leather boots I go through, reapplying as it gets worn & scratched.

I used it on Minnetonka boots and they are now waterproof and look great, so yes.

It will darken the leather somewhat!But it will also water proof and seal the leather.I use it to seal and protect the stitching on my boots and so far it's worked all winter with just one coat

been using sno seal since the 70's... in addition to rubbing it in on the boot, put some in a small pot and heat it up on stove until it is a liquid.. with hand inside boot, hold it toe up at about a 45 degree angle and pour liquid sno seal on seam at toe... it will run down seam on both sides perfectly and seal the seams from any water getting in... works great!

I just give it one good coating all around the boot. Just put newspaper underneath the boots when you spray them because the stuff is kind of slick & slippery when it dries.

I'd probably stick with regular goop or some other alternative shoe adhesive. In my experience, the Marine dries non-flexible and I can't guess how it would work for leather (I used it on plastic).

I've put the oil on 4 pairs of hiking boots and it does make them darker and a little softer. The leather from hiking books tends to soak up a lot more of the oil and I usually re-apply once or twice a year. Benefits would be waterproofing the boots and conditioning the leather which, I assume, will prolong the life of whatever leather you put it on. I'd recommend the product.

As I was a leather smith in a prior erea. It is best to just continue resoling the boots with new leather. Don't take what is good and turn it into junk! Rubber soles on Cowboy boots just don't get it. John C. Kozel

I would not use this product on any leather unless it was for the purpose of significantly conditioning boots that are exposed to rain, snow or mud. First, it will darken leather. Next, even though it will soak into boot leather it will take at least 48 hours before the leather loses its "greasy feel". I would NEVER use thus on a jacket or vest. I would use a good leather conditioner such as Bick's #4 and then use a neutral cream or colored cream to touch up if necessary. LP is an excellent product for boots used in harsh conditions such as construction, hiking or winter weather. I apply it 3 times per year for that purpose. Never on anything else!

That's a tough question to answer. I think this product may do that, since it intends to seal the leather. With constant wear the coating could wear off and stain your clothes. This isn't really a "clear coat" that establishes a glossy layer on your leather, its more of a hydrophobic treatment. I think you should probably look for a "Heavy-Duty Resin-Based Waterproofing Spray" (hint).

warm the boots up...in sunny spot maybe? and re buff them. Too much wax makes em sticky. Heat and buff thins the coating.

I would be hesitant to use it on leather. Since water can cause leather to shrink.

A little goes along way ,You have to get the leather real hot and it will soak up the sno seal. Let the boots set for a day or too in a warm room you should be good to go ,

I used the son seal on a pair of BLACK DIAMOND Gloves(dirt bags).It worked just fine so far,I would definitely recommend it.I seals conditions and waaterproofs.I'll know more at the end of the season.I've done 4 or5 pair of gloves and still have about half a jar left.The important thing is to use the hair dryer to heat the leather and let the wax melt in and seal the leather GOOD LUCK GREG!

I use mink oil michael , you might use saddle soap also. I use mink oil on all my leather it completely water proofs and softens any leather . Walmart has it for 5 dollars or the tractor supply store carries it also .

I wouldn't. I can't find it now but I think remember reading that this formula is intended for synthetics. I'd use waterproofing spray for suede/nubuck shoes on suede.
