this might be it, i can't live in air conditioned environments, it makes my nose dry and my head woozy and my joints tend to ache.JR8 wrote:Ah, might simply be because we don't use air-con...
Interesting point on the light. Do they sell any anti mold LEDs I could put in a shoe closet or something?sundaymorningstaple wrote:I've never had a problem with our leather furniture regarding mold, but leather shoes/bags/and certain clothes whether leather or fabric and even the walls in one bedroom (one without any direct sunlight at all) all tend to get white mold. The walls were just repainted with a mold resistant paint so we'll see how that goes but as the new paint is white, it won't show up like it did with the "deep orange" walls my son wanted when it was his room. But that is to be expected because we don't have any aircon at all, day or night. My heavy black leather topcoat/carcoat (?) I have to keep on a hanger outside of my closet and turn it around every couple of days to prevent white mold from growing. At least my bedroom is bright but put it in the closet and bang, white spots in a matter of days.
No worry, as long as the bag is sealed properly and silica gel fresh, given enough time (days) it will suck water out from the leather (I assume you mean natural leather). If it's dry the mold will not grow even in dark.sundaymorningstaple wrote:I also though about storage in a vacuum bag with silica gel packets, but again, the darkness between the layers would possibly negate the silica gel's properties as the leather may tend to seal out any of the benefits.
Oh thank you for such wonderful advise Stuart. Could you, or one of your "unrelated" lackeys tell me where I can purchase such a thing for a good price (to you)??stuartkweston wrote:If you are talking about the rugs I would suggest you a persian rugs on the floor. They look totally beautiful.
