Maybe but ours were such a dark shade of navy it wasn't noticeable. I only did it on outward facing parts of cuff cases that would get torn up from the car seat. A little bit goes a long way.

I've used sole dressing on items such as this in the past to clean up some worn areas or flaws.Excaliber wrote:I haven't tried this, but black leather dye might reduce the ruboff problem.gigag04 wrote:Maybe but ours were such a dark shade of navy it wasn't noticeable.

Re: Police Academy Adventures
You need to PM everyone your name and department. Since we have prayed you all the way through this Academy thing you can't write us tickets.

Re: Police Academy Adventures
Thanks everyone so much. It's been a long journey and now I'm officially a Texas peace officer. I ordered my firearm today and next week when it come in ill post pics. My first day is Friday and I can't wait. Thanks again guys for all the advice and wisdom.
I will not write a fellow CHL a ticket so none of y'all have anything to worry about.

Re: Police Academy Adventures
Seems like just the other day you were facing lots of unknowns and much uncertainty. Isn't it amazing how and how quickly it worked out?
