FAQs
Can Effax Lambskin Wash be used on all leather types?
It is suitable for most types of genuine leather, especially those used in equestrian gear. However, it is not recommended for suede, nubuck, or synthetic materials.
How often should I use this product?
For optimal results and maintenance, it is recommended for daily or regular care of your leather items, especially those exposed to dirt and sweat.
Do I need to rinse the leather after using Effax Lambskin Wash?
While rinsing isn't strictly necessary, it is important to wipe the leather thoroughly with a clean, damp cloth to remove all dirt and cleaner residue.
Will this product make my leather soft?
Effax Lambskin Wash cleans and helps maintain the leather's natural flexibility. For very dry leather, a separate conditioner may be needed after cleaning to enhance softness.
Can I use this on my riding helmet?
If the helmet is made of genuine leather and has a smooth finish, it can be used. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and check the manufacturer's care instructions for your helmet.
What is the volume of the product?
This product comes in a 250ml bottle.
Is it safe for leather that has been previously treated or conditioned?
Yes, it is generally safe for previously treated or conditioned leather as it is designed to clean without stripping essential oils. However, always perform a spot test first.
Troubleshooting
Product leaves residue on leather.
Ensure you are using a clean, slightly damp cloth to wipe away all dirt and cleaner residue. You may need to wipe a second time with a fresh damp cloth. Always allow leather to air dry.
Leather appears dry after cleaning.
This cleaner is designed to remove dirt effectively. For leather that is naturally dry or has become dry over time, follow up with a quality leather conditioner after cleaning and drying to restore moisture and suppleness.
Spray nozzle is clogged.
Gently remove the nozzle and rinse it under warm water. Ensure any dried product is cleared before reattaching.
Ineffective on very old or ingrained stains.
For deeply set stains, pre-treat the area with a specialized stain remover suitable for leather, or consult a professional leather care specialist. This product is best suited for regular, light to moderate cleaning.
