Don’t remember if I posted this before. 1975 or so Raleigh International I bought new, full Campy and Brooks saddle. After 6,000 miles on the back of the RV going cross country I decided to de-scuz it
Yeah, the leather on the saddle is soft and well oiled like a well taken care of baseball glove. In CA you can't buy mineral spirits any more, at least not in LA, so they sell some "clean air solvent" which is basically Acetone, which isn't worth spit for degreasing, so I went and got a gallon of diesel fuel; I don't think you can buy kerosene here any more.
