I'm beyond stoked I made the (wise) decision to buy the tan IH belt going by those pics… Lovely!..

I'm beginning to think I chose the wrong brand… Pigs on the tag?.. DAMN!.. 

ALD - 2+ years old. Never polished or treated the leather:

Is it best to leave the leather patch un-treated or condition/polish ?

[malibuboy]

hey dave28 !

i have been looking into this myself and it would seem obenaufs leather oil MIGHT be the ticket.

i am ordering some up for a test on a new set of 634S's.

Malibu, If you open that package that I had shipped to you, you will find some Obernaufs in it.  Feel free to break open the package and experiment…G

Hi Giles, do you know anywhere in the UK that sells the Obernaufs?  I emailed them about a UK order but they haven't got back to me.
