If anyone has any neatsfoot oil that I could borrow/purchase/use for this event, it would be much appreciated. Please let me know in advance if you can hook me up.
Thanks,
Chris

In case one was wondering what neatsfoot oil is--
(Taken from Wikipedia.org)
Neatsfoot oil is a yellow oil rendered and purified from the shin bones and feet (but not the hooves) of cattle. "Neat" in the oil's name comes from an old name for cattle. Today, many[who?] consider the best quality neatsfoot oil to be that which comes from the legs of calves, with no other oils added. Neatsfoot oil is used as a conditioning, softening and preservative agent for leather. In the 18th century, it was also used medicinally as a topical application for dry scaly skin conditions.
"Prime neatsfoot oil" or "neatsfoot oil compound" are terms used for a blend of pure neatsfoot oil and non-animal oils, generally mineral or other petroleum-based oils.
PS. Sounds kind of gross.

Used to keep softball and hardball gloves supple, among other uses.
