Ken, I’ve read / heard stories of people submerging them into rice to draw all the moisture out, no idea if this works plus that would take a good amount of rice!
If it were mine, I’d just sit it outside on the deck in the sunshine with a small fan blowing straight into the hand & finger stalls, for hours.
After completely 100% dry, I’d really condition it good inside & out with a high quality conditioner, NO OIL!! Conditioner!
Lexol.
Ball Players Balm.
Surf City Voodoo Blend.
Mizuno Strong Oil, it’s actually a conditioner.
Wilson Pro Stock.
The Lexol will probably be the easiest to get….Walmart, Auto Zone, and Advance Auto Parts usually keep it in stock.
And DSG usually keeps the Mizuno and Wilson conditioners.
