Has anyone re finished a modern repro sheepskin such as an Eastman B3 or ANJ4 ? I am wearing my 25 year old ANJ4 and the surface has decidedly flaked off rather a lot.
Eastmans site and catalogues from a while back insisted their finishes were just like original but they do not wear like an original, especially the older jackets including the early Roughwear's they produced going by a few originals I have owned.
Is it possible to buy on general sale the 'polyacrylate' finishes makers such as Aero and Lost Worlds and Eastman use just to couch up the areas where the raw sheepskin hide shows through?
Thanks, J.
