fingersxd Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Crude as it sounds.. Any ideas guys? I heard oiling it gives a more gen look? If so what oil would you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweaker Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Leather conditioner seems to work well for me. Gives it a nice finish IMO def a lot better then stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cats Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 After one treatment with baseball glove oil this is the result. When the strap cam i felt like the leather was too dry it almost felt brittle but after the oil treatment it looks a lot better imo By the way this is the GSW asso dep strap that came finally after local customs dubbled the price by billing me the tax and the import duties Carpe Diem Cats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_rymeister Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 So how do you go about applying the leather treatment? D you just wipe it on or soak the strap? I'm gonna have a look on eBay tonight and see what I can find and treat my strap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
