Default Re: Leather holster and accessory storage

Jason,


I agree with you on the Pecards taht it is one of the best going for preservation. I use Lexol and have had good results from it over the years. The biggest thing on leather is to use a conditioner very sparingly and just enough to provide a little nourishment to the leather.


The biggest enemy of leather is ultraviolet light, the sun! Also they should be kept in as low a humidity as possible.


I also recommend that a 1/4" dia roll of acid free paper or bubble wrap be placed behind the belp loop so it will keep it's shape. I also place some bubble wrap inside the holster. Don't keep the pistol in the holster, this is detremental to the pistol and the holster.
