Re-proof oilskin DYI

[msm007]

Found this link about DYI re-proofing oilskin. Looks pretty good. Anybody try anything like this? http://www.woodcentral.com/cgi-bin/readarticle.pl?dir=smalser&file=articles_368.shtml

There was a thread on this a while back. As I remember, most who had done this had good success with it, but commented that the process was messy. An alternative is to send it back to its maker for a professional redo.
