Doc Cherokee, SASS#48332 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I really don't know if this question belongs here or in the "Arts" section, but I'll try it here first.. I recently dragged out my old muzzleloader shooting bag and checked it out..It looks fine on the outside, but the inside has got a bit of mold and mildew, along with some small possibles bags I kept in it..It's not terrible, but the bags do need cleaning, and also has a bit of a smell I would like to get rid of..Any of Y'all know the best way to clean it? Right now I have it hanging out in the sun, that seems like a good place to start.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Slim SASS #24733 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I've used rubbing alcohol on shoes that were stored in a damp place. As for the smell, putting a dryer sheet in the bag might help. It works for me with old steamer trunks that get theat musty smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EL NEGRO GATO Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I found a leather cleaning company, they have several products to clean moldy leather first they have a liquid wash, then a leather finisher, It worked great on several holsters and belts they are called Leather Therapy and their website is www.leathertherapy.com they have several different sample kits. I was very pleased ENG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boulder Canyon Bob# 32052L Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 This comes up frequently on a m/c list I subscribe to, the consensus there is a product called concrodium works very well. I haven't tried it myself, but users swear by it. I'm told it's available at places like Lowes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
