I have a beautiful Billy Royal show saddle, medium leather, that got an oil stain on it (neatsfoot oil). Is there anything you can recommend I do? Or should I take it to a repair shop? I tried to clean it and it made it worse. Please help. Thank you.

If it was mine I would try baking soda or corn starch to pull the oil out of it. If nothing else works then you can take it to a repair shop but if you need the saddle before you are able to fix it, as a last resort you can use more neatsfoot oil to get the rest of the saddle to match and hide the stain. I know it's not a great solution but if the baking soda or corn starch doesn't work there won't be much else to fix it other than a saddle repair shop.

I agree, it is not the rubber bellows, it is the rear bearing. I too replaced both bearings in my washer (I'd suggest a bearing puller to get them out) and the seal (~$70). The washer worked great for about 1 year and 3 months and now the problem has returned. I am not sure if I did a shoddy job with the seal or it is a design flaw. We also had one of the suspension springs break during a wash cycle and this may have caused some bearing damage. We are currently deciding whether to get a new washer or fix. One thing I noticed recently was that the bearings in the Whirlpool duet are different than the Kenmore, they are isolated by stainless steel and not rubber as in the Kenmore. I may try to find these in the same size at least for the first rear bearing which is the one that gets hit with water first.

You put a tiny drop of oil in the bobbin case. Take off your embroidery unit and face it where you can see under the arm. See the long rod..There is a felt pad on each end of the rod. Using a Q-tip oil the felt pad.

How to Remove Ice Cream Stains


Quoting from link above:

Remove Ice Cream Stains From:

Leather
Gently scrape any excess ice cream from the leather. Mix a solution of mild soap in lukewarm water. Swish to create a great volume of suds. Apply only the foam with a sponge. Wipe with a clean dry cloth. If a grease stain remains, powder the area with an absorbent, such as cornmeal. Give it plenty of time to work. Gently brush the stain off the leather. If after trying the cornmeal absorbent any trace still remains, try a leather cleaner, Tannery Vintage Leather Cleaner & Conditioner. Rub it in with a clean soft cloth and allow to dry. After either method, condition the leather with Tannery Vintage Leather Cleaner & Conditioner or Fiebing's Saddle Soap.

How do I remove light brown hair permanent colour from a white leather lounge. Did it yesterday?

Try Squeezing toothpaste onto the stain, then scrub lightly with a soft bristled brush, then wipe off. Dab acetone-free nail polish remover onto ink dye stain with a cotton ball or wipe, and rub to remove the stain. Spray aerosol hairspray onto the stain and rub off with a damp cloth, rubbing until the stain starts to fade.

I've read that you can use mineral spirits to clean leather.I was wanting to clean my jacket.Is that true?Thanks..Henry!

DO NOT USE: Any Saddle soaps, oils, abrasives, cleaners containing detergent (such as dishwashing liquids), solvent-based cleaners (such as mineral spirits), varnish or ammonia water or silicone-based products as these types of cleaners will cause damage to the protective top coat of the leather and may void your warranty. Your leather has already been preserved in the tanning process and needs no maintenance other than the simple cleaning recommended

What is the best product for revitalising soft leather upholstery on a Bentley Turbo R?

Hi Tim

I trust you are well

I would suggest using Dubin it is an all round leaher protection just make sure once you have applied it and let it dry that you polish it to make sure it does not mark your clothes alternatively you can buy a "leather Food" product. Try speaking to someone who rides horses they normally have leaher care products that they use on their saddles and leather products.

Hope this helps

kind regards

How do I clean my stormbuck boots from Timberland? The store did not know

Considering everything that we might step in during the day, it's a wonder that we bring our shoes into our homes at all. Cleaning our shoes not only gets all that grime back out the door, but it makes the shoes look better and last longe
Instructions Things You'll Need:

  • Shoe brushes
  • White vinegar
  • Soft cloths
  • Nylon bristle brush
  • Pencil erasers or fine sandpaper
  • Leather cleaner or saddle soap
  • Leather conditioner
  • Waterproofer
  • Shoe polish
  • Shoe polishing cloths
  • Baking soda
  1. Clean smooth leather shoes by first removing the laces and giving them a vigorous brushing with a shoe brush.

  2. Clean salt stains from shoes by mixing equal parts white vinegar and water and dampening a small cloth. Use the cloth to scrub the stained area. For suede or nubuck, use a nylon bristle brush.

  3. Use leather cleaner or saddle soap to clean the leather with a soft cloth. Pay particular attention to the seams.

  4. Clean suede or nubuck with a pencil eraser or fine sandpaper, then rub with a bath towel to bring up the nap again.

  5. Apply leather conditioner to all leather shoes, taking care to use the correct kind for smooth leather or suede. Conditioner keeps your shoe leather soft.

  6. Waterproof your shoes.

  7. Polish your shoes to help protect them and to give them a clean-looking gloss.

  8. Deodorize your shoes by sprinkling a generous amount of baking soda into them and shaking the shoes to distribute it inside. Let stand overnight, and then shake the baking soda out

How do i recondition and remove the mould smell from a leather and suede coat

For leather, you will need to apply leather cleaner. It may need to polish your shoes several time, but it will work. I would recommend going to your local tack shop (horse outfitters store) and buying leather cleaner for saddles. It lathers nicely, and leaves a nice silky soft finish. It will also improve the texture and life of your shoes.
I don't know what to recommend for suede.
Hope this helps.

How to clean it?

If your shoes are made of leather, I would use saddle soap. It will extend the life of your shoes, and keep them looking new. You can also use the saddle soap on the laces, as they are also made of leather. Try your local saddle/tack shop.
Hope this helps you out.
