It certainly will. Rub points will go just ever so slightly shinier.
Nice job as ever. Wherefrom is the corduroy? I got a link from Rudie to his German stuff. Would be interested in the source of yours!
btw, I just raided my local charity shop and came away with about 200-300 30s/40s "basic" bowl-back plastic buttons of the type so common on vintage suit jackets, trousers &cetera, but which are almost impossible to source modern versions of. I've been meaning to do it for years. The dame thought I was mental, picking through all her buttons and only taking the "crap" ones. A few corozo ones in there too. So if you're on the hunt for sets for your projects or for replacements for missing ones on vintage items, I'll probably have what you need!
