I use Leather Therapy...but it doesn't come in a spray. You have to
squirt it on a damp sponge and apply. Works well. Rather pricey. I
just changed to leather tack with white stitching, so have to work
around the stitching, because I'm afraid of discoloring. I should have
stuck with my nylon stuff which I could just throw in the washer! But
she looks soooo "stylin'" in her new leather gear! Another tip...throw
the gear into a bucket or laundry tub with water and some Murphy's Oil
Soap. Let it soak for awhile, scrub with a soft brush, rinse lightly
and let dry. Then do your oiling/conditioning.
Carolyn in S. Florida where we had a glorious breeze
today...we are
looking forward to some cooler, DRY weather!!!
