(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 02, 2013 ) San Jose, California -- There are various types and grades of leathers, each used for different purpose. Some require a bit more maintenance than others, but ALL can benefit from some basic care to extend its life.
To keep things simple, there are basically four steps in leather care that include cleaning, conditioning, polishing, and protection. When looking for a leather care product, be mindful for what kind of product you're purchasing. It can be confusing to try and figure out which product is for which purpose, but look for words that explain how the product is to be used. Some leather care products are very strong and can cause irritations. However, high quality leather products should not have a strong chemical smell! If the directions on the bottle is asking you to wear gloves or work in a ventilated area, then it's probably best to stay away from that product.
Leather cleaner and conditioner in ONE:
This is the easiest and fastest way to maintain your leather item in top shape and extend its life. This formulation is normally gentle and meant to be used often. Nothing will last forever, therefore you have to use it regularly to maintain the protection and sheen. Note, the end result after buffing is sheen, NOT shine like a polisher, see note above on polishing. Choose one that is made with natural ingredients, pH-balanced so that it allows the leather to breath and is non-hazardous to you and the environment. One of the new product on the market is the WhooHoo-Clean leather cleaner and conditioner. It was created in cooperation with a manufacturer of leather care products for over 100 years. And the best part is, it's made here in the USA. Beside by purchasing a top quality product, buyers also support American workers and their families.
Wet Leather:
An important key to keeping leather in top-notch condition is to treat wet leather before it has a chance to dry. Remove any dirt, mud, or other stains with a quality leather cleaner, then condition while the pores are still responsive. Remember: leather should be dried AWAY from heat! If the leather item is a handbag or shoes, it's a good idea to stuff them with paper to retain shape.
Storing Leather:
Leather is a natural material and should never be stored in plastic because it encourages the growth of mildew and bacteria and will ruin the leather. Always store leather in a cool, dry place away from heat. If the leather item is a garment, store in a breathable bag. If the leather item is a handbag or shoes, make sure you stuff them with paper so that it won't get wrinkled and retains its nice original shape. Follow these steps and you will enjoy your leather investment for a long time and save money along the way.
