I'm confused about these products.

I stopped by Tandy's yesterday to pick up some dye for a sheath I'm making. While there, I bumped into a lady who claimed to have been carving leather for a "couple of years now" and asked what I was looking for and what was my project. Told her I was making a knife sheath that I wanted to dye and antique. I had already chosen the dye and had it in hand. She reached up on the shelf and handed me two bottles. One was Pro Resist and the other was Tan Coat. I "think" she said the Pro Resist goes on top of the stain to protect it while applying antique and the Tan Coat was to go on top of the antique to keep it from rubbing off on things, i.e. clothing, etc. Since I'm not positive of the order I "think" she told me, I got on the Internet and looked up the uses of each of those two items. It seems that either one of them could be used as a sealer or top-coat. So now this newbie stands confused, holding one bottle in each hand.
