Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Before using, ensure the leather surface is free of loose dirt and debris. Always perform a patch test in an inconspicuous area of the tack to check for colorfastness and compatibility.
Application: Apply a small amount of the cleaner to a clean cloth or sponge. Gently rub the cleaner onto the leather in a circular motion.
Drying: Allow the cleaner to penetrate the leather for a short time, then wipe off any excess with a clean, dry cloth.
Compatibility: This cleaner is designed for use on most types of leather tack. However, it's always best to test on a small, hidden area first.
Care: Store the cleaner in a cool, dry place. Ensure the bottle is properly sealed when not in use. Avoid using excessive amounts of the cleaner, as this may lead to build-up on the leather surface.
