tsunkasapa Report post Posted January 22, 2022 I would use Neats foot oil, but guess any oil will do. After the dog ate half a jar of mink oil and shat all over the house, I won't have it in the house anymore. And I do mean EVERYWHERE!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Outpost Report post Posted January 22, 2022 Mink oil is primary a waterproofer. Use a leather conditioner such as Bick 4, Lexol Conditioner , Lexol NF or All purpose cleaner and conditioner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please advise use nf sparingly a little goes a long way then if its for outdoor use you can use the mink oil or any of the waterproofing concoctions, if not then any of the popular finishes. I use the fiebings golden mink oil on most of my outdoor stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
