Very sorry, guys....huge mistake on my part. The jacket is not (obviously ) a Bronco, but a Monarch. Guess my mind was somewhere else.
I rec'd a prompt and courteous response from Gary this morning:

Hello all,
How do you guys protect your aniline dyed jackets from water spots? I have a new Eastman aniline dyed Bronco A-2 and got caught in a rain shower 2 days ago. The jacket exhibits some darker spots from the rain even though it's fully dried out.
