Troubleshooting

Touch screen not responding

Ensure the index finger is clean and dry. Check that the touch-sensitive fabric is not damaged. Try pressing slightly firmer.

Reduced grip over time

Clean the suede grip areas with a soft brush to remove dirt and restore texture. Re-waxing the cotton fabric may also improve overall handling.

Stiff leather after drying

Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for gloves to restore suppleness. Avoid drying near direct heat sources.

Water resistance diminished

Reapply a quality wax treatment to the waxed cotton sections following the manufacturer's instructions for the wax product.
