I just bought a saddle with white buck stitching and it came with a matching breast collar. The buck stitch is supposed to be white but it turned yellow. I don't know if it's from age or if the previous owner put something on it. Any ideas on how to clean it? I can't seem to find anything online!!

It may be a plastic which encases thin cardboard. If so, anything you put on it will come off. If a soft toothbrush and soap doesn't remove it I'm afraid you're stuck with it the way it is.

Thank you! I ended up taking it to a local tack shop that also does leather work so he's going to take it apart and add new buckstitch! So it will be good as new.

I hope you removed the old stitching. I did that on a bridle and it came as a surprise how time consuming it was. I didn't bother to relace it as once it was soaped and oiled, the slits seemed to close right up.
