Greetings, everyone.
I'm having an impossible time trying to remove black mold stains from my aussie saddle (just pulled out of storage, hasn't been cleaned in months). I've tried just about everything, but to no avail. Any suggestions?

I have used Lysol for green mold, and it didn't damage the leather. Not sure if it will work on the black stuff, but it works wonders on the green stuff.
Good luck!

This is just a thought, but I wonder if green spot remover that you use on a white horse would work? I'd put a little on a sponge or rag and try it in an area that's going to be under you seat or leg before using it anywhere else. I was just thinking that it works on hair and hide, maybe would work on leather. If it lightens the leather too much, you can touch it up lightly with a little shoe polish.
Have you tried the "normal" leather cleaners like Fiebing's, or Leather Therapy? Or just a pure glycerine soap? They make a commercial type cleaner for leather furniture but it didn't do "didley" to remove a spot on my sofa where the cat threw up. I don't know if it would work on saddle leather any better.

I've tried everything from glycerine to high-end stuff like Effax Leder Combi etc. Nothing seems to work.
The green spot remover sounds like it would be worth a try. I doubt there's anything too caustic in it.
Thanks for the idea!
