Old Hide To New

Recommended Posts

Ok so Im working on a suit of leather armor and I have an old hide that is thin enough to use for a certain part of it.  Only problem is this hide is old has a bit of mold and is a little stiff (it doesnt roll up really it sorta folds)  but its not rock hard and still has give and pliability to it.  What (if any) steps should i take to clean up the hide, get rid of the mold and get it a bit more flexible again?  Thank you all for the info in advance!

Or would it just be better to spend another 30 or so at tandy to get one in better condition I normally wouldnt worry about trying to mess with it but its a pretty big chunk of a hide left and dont want to just throw it away
