Leather Jacket Balm/protection

#1 PostAuthor: Pigford » Tue Feb 11, 2020 4:19 pm

Want to nourish (love that word, although “moist” is better) my bestest leathers!

What’s that stuff the girls sell at the Bike Shows, when they offer to buff your boots whilst you stare down their cleavage?

Anyone got anything else they recommend that looks after and maybe even waterproofs.

Always used Neatsfoot oil myself for nourishing leather.

+1 for Neatsfoot oil, spent many years lovingly nourishing my daughters Irish dance shoes with it!
