Re: [RC] help with archives - Barbara McCraryThere was a saddle maker in our county many years ago, and he swore by whale oil for leather. Where you get it is another issue.

Veg oils vary greatly. They vary from Linseed oil, which will set up like varnish to Crisco which has no unsaturation and thus will never set up. The suggestion of Olive oil may be a good one. The unsaturation is different than Soy or Corn oil, and it may not set up as much. It is also possible that with part Neatsfoot oil and part veg oil things only get a smidge more viscous which would help the oil stay put.
