Hi,

Actually - if the airtight bag had dessicant in it - wouldn't that prevent mold from growing? For us in humid or changing climates (NE would be one, as the weather goes from "hot"/"cold" - and lately seems to be pegged at "cold"

), I'm wondering how best to preserve the leather from molding as well??

Now - I'm not a leather guy - and only occassionly have a wierd holster - but I'd like to know as well.... (Yes - I read the Leather preservation link <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> )

Jerry? Others? Comments?? Thoughts??? I know once mold appears, Jerry has "baked" his holsters ("Hi Honey - what's for dinner? Smells good <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> ), but before the point of baking, any suggestions?
