I am looking at a saddle that is a real bargain. It has a few scratches and a cut on the seat. I am not worried about that, but it is a slick seat. I have always used a rough out, and this thing feels like glass.
What I am trying to decide is if I can some how roughen the seat and still have it look good. I have read about some sort of sanding method used to give top grain leather texture. Can any of the leather workers here advise me? I need function over form, but I would still like it to look good.
Thanks.
