You might want to try a product Tandy at least, used to sell. Carnauba Cream. It is more like a liquid wax product. I just looked and they still offer it. I would test precoating also, perhaps that will make the smoke easier to clean off.

Yes, I didn't think about precoating the leather, I do wood, so not sure why I didn't think of that! LOL

I love working with leather, so would like to get this down. Thanks for the tip. Will try it!

If you're ordering some finish from Tandy, you might also want to take a look at their leather rounds. I think that they would make some great coasters. I have subbed some and use them in our house on a regular basis.

Yes, I did order some to try , will see how it works when I get it.

Yes, I have used the rounders for coaster too. They are nice to use. I do love lasering on leather, I think it is my favorite thing to use, just trying to think of more things to do with the leather and how to do it best with sealers, etc.

Thanks for the tips.
