<p>[QUOTE="Rabid Collector, post: 773077, member: 11189"]It comes down to personal experience but I have a WW1 chainsaw with a leather case which had some paint on it. I used very carefully Q tips soaked in nail varnish remover but it took a while and required a lot of patience as you need to make sure the nail varnish remover covers the paint and not the leather itself. Once you see the leather coming through, saddle soap can be used. Worked for me but make not work for everyone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
