Waterproofing

The waterproofing spray is intended for accessories, bags and jackets made from leather, canvas or split leather. If necessary, clean the item with warm, clear water. The spray can be applied to damp or dry material. Shake the bottle, spray evenly from a distance of 10 to 15 cm and spread with a clean, damp cloth for an even result. Then allow it to dry for 12 hours.

Care with solid wax

For regularly used items, resealing is recommended at least once a year. Before treatment, remove dirt and sand and clean the material with a sponge and cold water. Do not use soap or detergents.

• Do not machine wash
• Do not dry clean
• Do not iron
• Do not tumble dry
• Apply the wax in a warm room or outdoors in sunlight
• Work it in sparingly and evenly with a soft cloth or sponge
• Treat seams and folds with particular care
• Gently warm with a hair dryer for an even finish

Color cream and specialized cleaning

The black or brown color cream is used to cover scratches and scuffs on smooth leather. It must not be used on split leather. Treat the cleaned area with a sponge, allow the cream to dry for 15 minutes and then polish with a soft cloth.

The brass brush is intended for the care of split leather. The cleaning disc removes glue and sticky materials from leather or split leather. It measures 100 × 60 mm with a thickness of 8 mm and is rubbed over the affected area using light pressure; the area is then cleaned again with a soft cloth.

Safety instructions

Keep the waterproofing spray out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged skin contact, and use only in a well-ventilated area.
