snake skins on limbs brought back to life
« on: February 01, 2010, 01:41:00 PM »
so i have a set of cheyenne limbs with snake skins on them. not sure what type of snake, but know they were installed by mr. morrison.


anyways, they have looked "dry" to me for a bit now. well yesterday i decided to gently rub some lemon oil on them. what a difference it made. it made the skins look fresh and alive. just thought i would share........

Snakeskin is leather any good leather moisturizer/preservative,that's breatheable will bring them back to life, I like Montana Pitch Blend.

Is there any danger of the oils soaking through the skins and maybe causing the glue to lose it's adhesive abilities and then the snake skins come off?
