How often should I apply the conditioner and proofer?
Apply regularly, typically after every few uses or more frequently if exposed to wet conditions. Reapplication frequency depends on use.
Can I use this on other brands of boots?
Yes, it is suitable for use on other leather footwear, but is specifically designed for Meindl boots.
How do I clean my boots before applying the product?
Clean the boots with a brush or damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Allow them to dry before application.
What kind of leather is this product best for?
It is ideal for all leather types, but is especially beneficial for nubuck leather.
Does this product protect against salt damage?
While it does offer protection, it is not specifically designed to reverse salt damage. Clean boots after exposure to salt.
Can I use this product on synthetic materials?
This product is designed for leather. For synthetic materials, use a cleaner or protector specifically designed for those materials.
How long does it take for the product to dry?
Drying time varies depending on the environmental conditions. Allow the boots to dry completely before use, usually a few hours or overnight.
Troubleshooting
Water is still penetrating the leather.
Ensure the product has been applied evenly and allowed to dry completely. Reapply the conditioner and proofer if necessary. Check for any damage to the leather itself.
The leather appears darker after application.
This is normal, especially with certain types of leather. The darkening is temporary and will fade with wear. If the darkening is undesirable, test the product on a hidden area of the boot first.
