being that it would ruin THAT tunic, I think I would have to clean the spot on the buckle, but that's just my opinion, if I get a m-4 bayonet that is really got rust that is o it I usually clean them off then put RENwax on it, but that's me. it really is all up to you anyway. just mho plus I can't remember the name of it right now, but I have a good leather conditioner that I put on the leather handles, it doesn't take off any color, stains , etc but makes the handle supple enough not to shrink , or split.
I found a solution to the original question of the thread...I agree with you fully as leaving things alone so I got some thin breathable plastic that is used to cover points of insertion of IV catheters that will protect the ramps from discoloration. Then I just undid the fourth button on the tunic to make sure it did not contact the buckle and placed another thin piece of non-reactive plastic behind the belt around the tunic to minimize contact. I will have to let you know in many decades IF this actually works! I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
I have heard many good things about the Renwax and have ordered some to protect the leather. We will see...
Take care,
CMH
