pauly Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I've just bought my first ever set of leathers (RST blade ladies, best fitting for my shape and fine for what I need) - do I need to do anything to protect them BEFORE I start wearing them? And do I just clean them when they are grubby or should I do it on a regular schedule?thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 What is this "cleaning leathers" of which you speak?...... I used to use saddle soap for cleaning them, and then a bit of Neatsfoot oil to feed the leather.......but these days I don't bother......

Chrissb6 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 A lot in the race paddock use baby wipes no joking, l can confirm they do work a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauly Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 ah I'm starting to really like you guys - I thought you were going to tell me I had to spend hours rubbing some expensive leather protector into them before I could even go out in them . Baby wipes are the clandard cleaning equipment for anything in this house, so that should be easy enough, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamBerryKing Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 i usually only clean mine when theres a large amount of dead bugs on them, then its just baby wipes to get them off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six30 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Ive Only ever cleaned the bit where me Italian tinned tomatoes sit, when you keep getting a whiff of a pissy mouldy smell then give em a squirt of Frebeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
