 whats a damar ?
 Is that asking for aqua fortis and oil of merbane ?

I sell VHT track bite at work . You spray it on your tires
at the drag strip It smells like bubblegum and is very sticky .
Limited experiments on leather and canvas show positive reults ,
but the methanol  in it  makes it a hazmat on UPS . doubles the price .
