Thanks for the consensus - I justed wanted to confirm there was no magic linseed oil, beeswax, glycerin, frankicense and myrrh compound that would rejuvenate old cloth wrappings and insulation. I just tend to obsess from time to time about trying to keep things original and authentic.
Just got the whole shebang pulled out this afternoon - too much damage and chafing and having-been-fiddled-with to contemplate re-use - but it is mostly intact, so I have an excellent pattern to follow.
