Need to know right now...

I just completely submerged my Bridled in a bowl of Neats Foot Oil to darken it. My plans are to soak it over night and then lay it out in the sun in the morning. Then repeat the process.

Did I just make things difficult for my self?

To let you know the bridle did need some oiling anyways.

The only downside to that is the residue that it will leave on your horse when he sweats. It will be sort of oily! You can buy leather dyes also

Thanks for the reply. I decided to let it soak for about 2 hrs and then let it dry for a while. It looks very dark right now, as compared to it was a golden color before. I was kinda thinking the same thing about the residue, so I hope I did not do too much all at once.
