This is an actual aniline dye base matched to the ford King ranch colors  it has a very small resin particle allowing it to soak into the surface unlike our competitors so called aniline dye base. If you do not use an actual aniline dye then you will not get the aniline look or feel you just end up coating the item like finished leather. Vipers exclusive formulation will give you  the look and feel of aniline dyed leather.
