Dawn,

I don't "use" anything on my mohair girths.  I brush them off with a 
soft brush, then soak & agitate in plain water.  Then I change the 
water & repeat.  I let them drip dry out of the sun.  To soften them 
after drying, I lightly brush them with a soft brush or simply rub them 
on themselves.

I don't trust soap of softeners against the horse's skin.  I've had too 
many who were way to sensitive in the girth area.
