How to clean saddle conchos with toothpaste
I wouldn't recommend this for a show saddle but for my everyday synthetic saddle it's perfectly fine. For a more expensive saddle id buy a silver cleaner to clean the conchos.
Grungy and dull conchos I just removed from my saddle
My saddle missing the concho on this side
Baking soda or whitening toothpaste will work just fine and if you can't find a crappy tooth brush use your brothers! He will never know!
Put toothpaste on first concho
On both conchos
In a circular motion scrub the surface of the concho, the toothpaste or baking soda will start to turn grey, that's good it means it is working
Take the toothbrush and wet it and continue to scrub the concho, it will foam
Rinse concho in water
Ooooooooooooo shiny!
After both are done
Dry them completely and put back on leather grommets
