Best way to restore vintage bats? Cleaner or treatment?

[soxnation92]

I have some old bats that could use a wipe down and have a real dry looking appearance. I was wondering what the best course of action to bring some of these real dry looking bats back to life. I like some battle scars and appreciate I nice weathered patina(natural) but the few bats I am talking about could use a re vamp.

Thanks!

What does a nice job for me is dilluted Murphys Oil soap applied by a scotch brite pad to clean bats, let the bat dry & apply a coat(s) of tung oil for the finish. Wipe off the excess & buff.
