re -Leather Softner

[Kenneth Wilson <jblken@xxxx>]

I too remember trying to get more leatherique, a few years later -after 
my first order, and found the company (Caulson -I think - not sure of 
the spelling) closed think the owner/product developer passed away - 
not sure) . I manage to trace down a family member of the company owner 
who gave me a name/source of getting some more dye etc. if any was left 
- as the company (I assume a small family operation) was no longer. I 
was only able to get the oil as the dyes (cherry red for the sport 62) 
Etc. were no longer being made. 

I still have some of the oil and it is still in usable condition which 
not the case for Lexol which I bought years later - it went bad 
(curdled). As I told that Lexol has a high percentage of water and 
some non organic stuff. I did find that the leather would not take a 
dye/color finish well if it was treated with Lexol but had no problem 
with stripping the leather paint off the leather (62 chrysler 300 red 
leather), treating with the Leatherique oil (on hot weather days), 
filling the cracks, and re-spraying the paint/dye (after the oils have 
soaked into the leather and excess wiped off and allowed to set a few weeks

I'm happy to hear, through this lister service ) that someone has 
rescued the the product line and has it back on the market!
