WE302 leather footpads cleaning?

[jeremylivin]

Almost done with my 302 restoration.  The last piece is the footpads.  They're leather and seem to be in great condition overall.  I just wanted to maybe clean and moisten them up a bit.  I had thought of using baby oil or saddle wax...

Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Funny my wife sells Avon. I'll place an order now.

And I'm getting the third degree from her... Haha

Great. And, you will find other areas in the forum about using SSS to restore bakelite. Here's one link to that.
