Never mind - maybe I should use all my stuff! - We all have too much stuff!

Try this... Wash everything down once again with some sort of soap. Obviously saddle soap is the 'safest' to use on leather, but even bath soap will get the job done. Wash off all the dubbin and the mould. Let it dry, then soak it with
ArmorAll. Spray the stuff on so that it drips! Make sure it's the 'Protectant' and not the dashboard cleaner or even the leather seat cleaner. The original formula Protectant is what you want. After you spray it on, let it sit a minute or two, then wipe off the excess, and buff out the leather so it's not slippery. If my leather's could stay mould-free in Thailand's jungle humidity, I'll bet yours can too!
