A pal has a smart Apinestars leather m'cycle jkt.
It's dry and stiff.
I said bees wax it 1/2 to death and it'll return to its former self.
Is this correct?

I like your style - offer definitive advice first, check the facts second 🙂
I'm glad you're not my GP (you're not my GP are you?)
Yes I am, and you damn well know it. Don't you?
I still like the old fashion method of working / bulling in a natural wax to bring it back to its former glory.

That advice does sound faintly familiar 😳
If it were my kit, I'd use something like the Daytona conditioning cream and then proof it before next use. It's not proofing it needs right now but conditioning.

vaseline, big tub for about five quid from boots, work into the grain with an old toothbrush, paying special attention to seams.

I got a really nice Spyke Hood jacket last Christmas as a personal pressy, and I used some Zamberlan Hydrobloc Cream that I keep around for my walking boots. It's good for other smooth leathers, and really seemed to work well, the leather is softening as I wear it, and water seems to bead off it pretty well. It's only around £3.50ish a tube, and a couple of tubes are worth having around. (note to self: order some more).
The Vaseline suggestion looks interesting, but it would have to be very sparing, otherwise the surface would be sticky. Hydrobloc is fairly 'dry' when you apply it.
