Apologies my search bar is refusing to work!
Ages ago I found on here a recipe for a natural home made saddle cleaner. At the time I wrote down what I needed but not the quantities. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

If you want a cleaning product, I use Wilf Whites Saddle Soap and recommend it to my customers. I use Wilf Whites extensively in my restoration work as well as is everyday tack care. I also make my own conditioner based on Oz's recipe.

Just a quick update.
I made the conditioner, bees wax takes some melting 😩 It’s the most satisfying thing! Perfect pots of loveliness that dries like a candle.
this evening I have sat and rubbed it into my bridles, need to refer back to the website as to the next stage but I think it was buffing and shining it up.
I literally could feel it doing my leather good, maybe that’s because I’ve never done it without a sponge before?!!
It all looks amazing so far 🤞
