New holster color transfer

2Loud4You · #1 10-28-2009, 08:13 PM

So I recently got a Don Hum holster for my Glock 27 in brown. I've noticed some color transfer to my pants but this doesn't happen with my brown Mitch Rosen holster for my Ruger LCP. Any idea what I can do to eliminate the dye rubbing off onto light clothing without affecting the holster's appearance too much? At least it would be the backside of the holster if it comes to that but I know there are some holster makers here that may be able to give me some insight.

Yes, I'll contact Don Hume as well but thought I'd try to get some answers here too.

Thanks

I don't know if it's a glitch but why is there a Google box with ads directly IN my post?

pick up a can of renaissance wax...best stuff on the market...works great on guns,knives,etc.does a super job of keeping leather looking good and will seal that color transfer...its on ebay as well as other sites ...

Thanks! Is it available in stores or something I'll need to find online? I'll see if I can easily find it.

Leather goods that have a dye should then have a leather finish put on top. It may be possible they missed this step. Contact the maker.

I shot off an email to them, just waiting to hear back. This is actually the 2nd one from them. The 1st slipped through with some ugly black marks across the front but I was told to use it until the new one came in to replace it. It too shed some color to my pants.
