IWB Leather / Kydex Condensation Problem w Supertuck

Hey, my first thread after lerking/reading a while. I found this post from a previous closed thread and I'm having the exact same problem (except I don't wear a t-shirt under my polo type short sleeve shirts). IWB, Glock 36, new Supertuck Crossbreed holster, which I love. Why is this thing condensing only on the side of the glock touching the leather. Only worn it 3 days and noticed rust this morning on the trigger.

Leather body, Kydex outer. Full coverage on the leather side beaver tail to muzzle.

Tighty-Whities and a T-shirt, holster, work shirt tucked in over all, denim pants. Moisture only forms on the part of the frame touching the leather.

I do have corrosive sweat. If it is not silver or gold, it will corrode away at any point touching my skin.

Now, I rarely sweat to the point where there are wet spots or dripping off. Even on slow, sitting around days it still happens.

I think that a re-coating of some sort is going to happen soon.

Wear on the gun I accept. That is going to happen with daily wear. Rust however annoys me.

The manufacturer of the holster is me, so I think I may try boiling the leather in Wax to seal it. If that does not do it, then I may have to try to get some horse hide.

Thanks for the input guys. I have some things to try now
