We used to have an acquaintance making bottles of a baseball glove cleaner &

conditioner.

A liquid. It might be similar. Some of ingredients: beeswax,carnauba wax ,tallow

& some

lanolin, plus a little bit of a surfactant, and an emulsifier ,water , and I

think a solvent of

some kind (very little).The solvent used to be turpentine.

Some people think of saddle soap as just a conditioner and other formulations

have a

cleaning (surfactant part) function. The solvent I am guessing is in it to

clean and then

dry as it evaporates . Then you would wipe the dirt off. The oils, waxes would

stay put

and go in to the leather.

Nowdays many pros that work with leather in the car detailing business,

motorcylce

dealers (leather seats) and horse tack shops will say they use a seperate

cleaner and then

another product for moisturizing and protecting. SOme protectants besides those

mentioned above wouldbe the neatsfool oils and the mink oil.

Hope this helps some.
