Mungo Report post Posted June 13, 2021 I have some extra leather I need to store for maybe a year. I was thinking I might apply neatsfoot oil, let it dry for a couple of days, and then put the pieces in a cardboard box. Would this work? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rahere Report post Posted June 13, 2021 Don't forget @Fredk lives in the Emerald Isle, and it's green because they have plenty of water in the air. In Arizona, that might be an entirely different matter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
