If I am not mistaken, Gp stands for General purpose, which is a saddle cloth which you use everyday. Like if you are doing a spot of schooling or going for a hack. It wont be your best saddle cloth just a everyday saddle cloth. Hope this helps ~Laura~
What are saddle pads called?
A numnah, or saddle pad. The saddle pad is a square, and the numnah is the shape of the saddle, generally. In North America, usually you will only hear the term saddle pad. Comes in all shapes (for some dressage saddles, "swallowtail", square, fitted) and thicknesses (a "baby" pad is a thinner variety"). Also, many English riders use half pads that are half the size of a saddle pad and are meant to fit under the saddle but on top of the saddle pad (some people use them alone). These come in memory foam, sheepskin, or various synthetics.
How do you wash a English saddle pad?
This is what i do: #1- I take a cloth, wet it and take off all the loose dirt on the saddle. # 2- I take some Liquid Glycerine saddle soap (Leather new) and spray it on the saddle then scrub it into the saddle (Whatever you do, Don't let it run) #3- Once your finishes that clean the cloth in warm water then squeeze the water out and effortlessly wipe the surface of the saddle. #4- Use a different cloth and i either recommend Leather CPR Or Effax Leather balsam and scrub into the saddle. #5- Check your saddle for Non treated scuffs and scratches, if there is 1 you didn't do it properly.
How do you clean a saddle?
(leather saddle)Step 1:Get some warm water in a bucket, wipe down the saddle with a damp cloth/sponge, to rid of any access dirt, mud or dust and thenStep 2:use some leather (saddle) soap, and use your cloth/sponge and scrub the saddle in a circular motion until you have created a light lather, then once the entire saddle has been covered in a lather, you then wipe it down with a clean clothe/sponge with fresh warm water.Step 3:Using a dry towel/cloth, apply a generous amount of leather (saddle) conditioner to the surface of the saddle, and apply once again, with a circular motion. Since this is more of a cream rather than a soap, do not expect a lather, the saddle will simply absorb the conditioner. If your saddle is old or hard, apply two coverings of conditioner.Conditioner allows the leather to soften and become more supple, just like using shampoo and conditioner for your hair, it leaves it feeling softer, healthier and smoother.(Synthetic saddle)Step 1:Get some warm water in a bucket, wipe down the saddle with the damp cloth/sponge, to rid of any access dirt, mud or dust and then use synthetic saddle cleaner.The synthetic saddle cleaner i use for my synthetic saddle is in a spray bottle, but i am sure there are many more on the market.Step 2:All I have to do after following the first step, then spray the saddle cleaner on to the surface of the saddle, use a cloth/sponge and scrub the cleaner with in a circular motion until you have created a light lather, then once the entire saddle has been covered in a lather and scrubbed, you then wipe it down with clean cloth/sponge with fresh warm water.I always dry my saddles after cleaning them, so that they don't absorb to much water, especially my leather saddle, as absorption of too much water allows it to swell.I hope this has helped :)Good luck!
Can you use Windex to clean a leather saddle?
No, no, no, no, no! An honest mistake, but I cannot stress enough that you should not use Windex on your saddle. I would suggest saddle soap and oil, which you can buy at your local saddlery.
