Gasoline and Leather

Recommended Posts

The other day, a friend was fixing my snow blower. When he was done, I picked up a plastic cap, unaware he'd used it to catch some gasoline he'd had to drain out of the carburetor.  I now have gas on my favourite pair of kid gloves!  :(  How can I clean them?

The gasolene will have evaporated off by now. It'll leave some smell. I would hang them where a breeze can blow thru them for a couple of days then treat them with neatsfoot oil to replace any oils the gasolene has taken out of them. The smell will go eventually, quicker if you don't lock them away in a drawer or some place, but hang them up so air can get around them
