Where to Find Neatsfoot Oil

[Anthony Foster <monkeypuzzle1@xxxxxxx>]

Hello All;
 What Steve said about neatsfoot oil pretty much jives with what I have
heard to use for the preservation of leather. There is another product that
you might want to use first to clean the seat leather called saddle soap. I
have never used it but it comes in bars like Palmolive, you will have to
look around for it. By the way my local Walmart doesn't have neatsfoot oil,
I have already checked. I think that a sporting goods store, the old
fashioned kind that sells guns and ball gear, would be a better bet as it is
used on catcher's mits.
