Kiwi mink oil has silicone...
BAD in my view. silicone is the chemical engineer’s crack. saves time, displaces other volatiles then evaporates off. If you ever pause or stop applying it regularly, the vinyl snd rubber just starts cracking up and drying really quick because the silicone had displaced all the plasticizers and UV inhibitors from the materials. |

Ha, cool! I was looking for a saddle with that nameplate design and I couldn't find anything until I hit this thread. It's a copper-railed Team Pro embossed with "Wanderer" on the side where the "Professional" logo normally is. Any idea when yours was produced?
Will post photos once I hit 10 posts. |
