Default Magic mender

I would highly recomend to anyone to use magic mender for leather repair. Covers up small cracks and tiny hole just fine. I have just one question to anyone who has ever used the product. How long do you have to wait untill you apply leather conditioner. It says when dry but does this mean after 24 hour? :hurray:

Give the repair a day to dry. (probably not necessary, but there shouldn't be any rush)

As an alternative to the expensive leather dressings, you might investigate using saddle soap and mink oil on your leather. They come in shoe polish cans (about $3/can) and are available in most stores that carry shoe polish. The application takes a little longer, but I prefer them over the spray applicators.
