Paulypal, did you end up using it?

I put some on my Nokona just to see what it was like, and I was a little disappointed in the white pastey substance it left behind. It is much more a waxy substance to begin with, but I found it didn't all absorb into the leather, and left little white spots of goop behind.

I'm sticking with Franklin foam or the Wilson/Hot Glove style wax from now on, though I might add some of the Primo butter on the Rawlings that I have that has still not totally broken in.
Alas, my glove is better than my game.

I put some on my HOH Pro 6 the other day. I put a little on my fingers and let it warm up a bit to and instead of getting the white film someone described it just melted into the glove beautifully. Did the whole glove by hand, then let it soak in and hit it with the softest of shoe brushes to brush off any residual, leftover glove butter. Worked nicely.

I agree, no residue here either. I like it a lot.

Interesting, I'll try warming it up first beforehand next time I use it. Thanks for the tip.

I actually sold my Primo. So I never got to use the butter, when I sold the Primo I gave the buyer the butter also.
