| Was you able to find the Blackrock at a tack store nearby or did you have to order it. I noticed you are near me and
was curious. I have a saddle that needs a good cleaning/ conditioning job. And by the way your saddle looks awesome! |

I bought the Blackrock in New Braunfels at Ludwig's Leather Shop near the square down Town.
And Thank you for the complement  |

I love it, all I can do is just putt around in it, the horse that I bought it for has been off in his front end and sore so going to have the chiropractor out here next week to look at him, so had it on my younger gelding, love the feel of it so far. Thanks for asking  |

Did you use it for the whole thing or just the seat? I got a nice saddle cheap but it is super dry and I am out of Miracle Juice but I do have a tub of Blackrock. |

I got the Blackrock to use on my seat, so did the seat and then I thought I will try a little bit of it on the jockeys to see how it felt and wow the feel of it was really nice and the leather was so much brighter, so one thing lead to another and I did my whole saddle in it, really glad I did, brought out the color in the leather the leather was nice in the first place, but really put a finish touch to it, the saddle is 2 years old so I thought that it would be good for it. |

| Good to hear. I have permanently stained tons of jeans from the Miracle Juice. Love my Caldwell's but not a fan of that "side effect". Did you put it on with a rag, scrub in with a toothbrush or ???? Do you let is soak in for a while and polish off or is this a slap-it-on-and-done type deal? |

I rubbed the Blackrock in with my fingers, lots of rubbing, then let it sit for a while {the Blackrock is like a fine paste} to soak in, then I used a paper towel to soak up the film of paste, dont rub hard, just pat it and lay paper towel on the leather and kinda run your hand over the paper towel, then let it sit a bit longer so it will dry a bit, then a few hours later I buffed it out with a cloth towel. You will find the Directions on the container. You might beable to google it and find out more about it.
The leather on my saddle was already nice, but I wanted to give it a boost and the Blackrock was the right touch. |

 Its really not to hard to do, my saddle dont have much tooling so was pretty easy, just dont slap to much over the tooling, then you would need a tooth brush to get it out of the tooling. I just loved the silky feel that it put on my saddle. And I would not use it on rough out.  |
