Bleednipple Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 A couple of years back at a car show, in a weak moment I was persuaded by a very nice young woman to buy a tub of a leather balsam called Renapur. I've yet to use it on car seats but use it all the time on my Aussie boots and find it completely brilliant for that. I'd imagine it would work well on a flying jacket. You just put it on with a sponge. Just checked and it's £12 for 200ml tub online (I'm sure I paid more than that, but the lady was very easy on the eye!) but a tub goes a very long way.
