Conditioner instantly darkened the ball and the mud was actually mud. I bought red river set up and used it once on a ball and immediately threw it away and bought this. Ball came out perfectly, just what I was looking for
Best product out there for getting the best out of a football. Follow the instructions and above all be patient. Let the product work with the leather, and you will see unbelievable results
Been using other muds from amazon. And they were not good. Ball stayed a dark orange color. Purchased Catalina and omg. The dark chocolate color and natural tacky feel is amazing.. my prep was brush, mud 24h, brush mud off, leather honey 24 hours, brush for game. My QB absolutely love it. And asked me to have more footballs preped. I will only buy Catalina mud from now on
Turned my Wilson GST that deep, broken in brown with a much softer feel. Conditioner is great too, goes on thick and makes it feel even better.
