I guess it depends on how bad it is. I had a pair of leather trousers go moldy and I just took a slightly damp sponge to them to clean the mold off. Obviously you then need to leave them out to air & dry properly after that.
As for stopping steel bits rusting, spray bottles of lanolin are the way forward. The downside is that you have to clean the stuff off before use but it stops steel rusting really well. |
