[muaymendez1]

Its no surprise thay my leather bags look weathered.I park my bike in the driveway mostly uncovered, and my bags look dull.What cam I do to clean impurities and protect out.I was thinking blavk shoe polish

I like and used Meguiars leather care products and or if very dirty I would use Zymol Leather cleaner and conditioner.

 

Both keep my leather covers clean and moisturized and looking like new.

I have found that good ol Saddle Soap works the best for cleaning and preserving

Most any farm store, Like TSC, Rural Kings or Farm and Fleets if you have them in NJ.. You may get it at a walmart but not sure. If that is what you choose get the paste kind like shoe polish. The stuff cleans and preserves your good leather nd makes it look new again

 

here is a list of TSC Stores In NJ

ALLENTOWN, BLAIRSTOWN, BRIDGETON, FLANDERS, PILESGROVE (WOODS, RINGOES, SICKLERVILLE, SOUTHAMPTON, SUSSEX, VINELAND, WASHINGTON

 

 

 

 

here is a lick to local stores that handle saddlery and tac and they will have good quality stuff

For waterproofing and moisturizing, I use mink oil on my boots, chaps, etc. Works great. Ron

When it gets nice an 80 mile ride for saddle soap would be a nice day.

You might try a shoe store or western apparel store that sells boots if I'm not mistaken Kiwi brand shoe polish packages saddle soap in a can just like shoe polish. Not trying to mess up your excuse for ride just my 2 cents.
