G.T. I have had some luck with placing the holster in a bucket and filling it inside and out with unscented cat litter. Leave it for a month or so mix it up and see if it needs another month. There could be other substances out there that would absorb oils or solvents a little better but I am not sure what. After the cat litter bath I hose it off with compressed air. I don't believe it will get it all out but it is a gentle way to try and get some of it off. Jerry Burney
