A seat belt and harness (Harness, Aircraft Safety, Shoulder Adjustable Type, MB-1A)?

Washing it, would damage the leather parts, right?

So, how do I clean it?

Thank you.

Mild soap and water on the webbing (sparingly), and saddle soap on the leather.

a diluted vinegar & water solution will help too along with a scrub brush & thorough rinse. removes mildew / mold. try it on an inconspicuous area 1st, to test compatibility. it worked wonders!!!! let thoroughly dry in a well aired area......... it worked wonders on a canvas navigator's case that i bought that was horribly stained, turned out like new. got the info from a a canvas / fabric restorer.

Thanks, Tom.

BTW, if you see your friend in OH, please ask him if he has had the time to check for the PT-19 stuff in the barn.

Tulio, the weapons collectors clean their web gear with a mixture of Woolite and warm water. If you rinse and still smell Woolite, rinse again.

Thank you, Rick.

I am going to try the Woolite approach.

I know for sure, that I am going to use Pecard's for the leather, since I have had good experience with that product on old rifle slings.

Thank you, to all.

Saludos,


Tulio
