Was turned on to this several years ago by a top saddle maker for oiling(Something I do only once a year) and it helps to be able to set your gear out in the sun between coats(3)' Between oiling, as I posted earlier, I really like Skidmores or Ray Holes Saddle Butter.

Damn typing (20 + years) Good thing we have police on this site to catch such things I have always worried about different oils like olive,vegetable,etc and having tack out when hunting if the rodents would be more likely to chew o nit.
