Malcom, Boil it and eat it, it's your holster. The idiot who put oil on it had some of the great ideas you are now having.

Vintage leather is not something to be treated so cavalierly. It does not respond well to these harsh chemicals or heat. Neither does your skin which is pretty much the same thing.

The oil will be extracted from the holster with kittie litter. Never all of it but enough to make a big difference.

The collectors here have given you good advice and Tom armstrong has more leather and experience with it than a hundred others I know.
