Leather Preservative Experiment

[Giles]

I have remembered to order some Saddle Soap.  Once it arrives, I can clean up the samples and finish this thing off.  Sorry for the delay….

I'm just gonna go ahead and bump this thread.

[Giles]

Soap has arrived, I've done nothing.  Will try and fix that next week.  Mea Culpa…..

[Chris]

Samples still outside, or did you bring them in after that last update?  Just curious…

[Giles]

Inside…..Because I need to be reminded that they need something doing to them....

[Snowy]

@Snowy:

Sly bump too, well done ;).

Can't wait to see the results!

[Giles]

OK.  They are on the bench…

Did a pretty good job of protecting the wood….

And a nice patina on the nails….

[Giles]

I then gave each sample the well known and time honoured 20 squeeze and bend treatment….

[Giles]

And the only sample to suffer any significant damage was the one that had had no treatment…

[Giles]

Next up was a good clean…

They are still a bit damp here, tomorrow, I'll take another look….

Your choice of "squeeze and bend" music was calming…

Like the LP so far

Thanks Giles

[grandmasterben]

Ahahah what the hell is that music. I know it's premature but I gotta say I think LP is the winner…

[Giles]

Christina Perri….

And the morning after the night before…...

Still # 1 fan of LP…

This thread is the sort of thing that really sets Giles apart from other retailers.  Such a cool idea.  Thanks, G!
