Yes!  This is my go-to for leather gloves, my boots and rain hat, and
the handles of all my outdoor tools.  I melt the stuff with a heat gun
and just pour it into my gloved hands and rub it all over the shovel
(or whatever) handle.  Smells great and it keeps the handles from
drying out.  Might keep them from rotting away in the rain too, but
that's not usually a problem in Fairbanks.  Never tried it on
furniture or other finer wood goods.

Cheers,

Chris
