Leather care stuff at Lidl

[clcuckow]

Hi All,

Lidl is going all horsey, dont know how well it will go, I dont think that most of the Cheshire set horsey people would know what a Lidl is ;). But they do have some saddle care stuff.

leder is leather
pflege is maintenance
sattel is saddle
pferde is horse...But then you all knew that? :)

Its almost certainly some form of liquid glycerin with a soaping agent in it. Pretty much standard for a liquid tack treatment. The glycerin treats the leather in theory while the soaping agent helps to disolve the dirt and grease.

Probably nothing special for that price :D Imagine the difference between washing your hair with washing up liquid or using a premium, prescribed shampoo :)

Its probably a bit like that but without trying it, who can say!

I like using washing up liquid to wash my hair! It goes such a long way & is also kind to my hands:)


Mind you, my hair looks like ****;)

According to the description in the german leaflet, it contains lanolin.
Which is basically a good thing.
It wont hurt the leather, anyway.
On a side note, they also offer minerals (compressed in a brick) for the horses to lick. These come in three different flavours. But how do you know what your horse wants?
