Treating a holster that is a bit mushy?

John makes a good point. I thought about garage floor absorbant but was not aware it was any better than kittie litter.

One other thing I forgot to mention...this treatment may not improve on the mushy flexibility of the leather. It will certainly remove some of the oil but chances are if it is mushy now it will stay that way as the leather fibers have been broken or are sliding past one another and are no longer fixed in place.

Let us know how it turns out! Jerry Burney
