Product Overview
Leather Shrinkage Restoration Kit S5.sr by Leather Doctor restores alkaline toxicity shrinkage through neutralizing, rinsing, hydrating, and fatliquoring.
Leather exposure to alkaline toxicity caused shrinkage, bleeding, and tackiness.
Alkaline substances such as liquid salt, baking soda, desiccant, detergent, saddle soap, or any liquid with a pH above 7 will denature leather.
Kit L5.sr is a 4-step dovetailing holistic system to restore leather shrinkage.
Step-1 the alkaline toxicity is neutralized and extracted out.
Step-2 acidifying rinse stabilize leather pH back to 3-5 and charging it ionic positive (+ve) to strengthen hydrogen bonding with the other ionic negative (-ve) tanning agent, dyestuff, and fat liquor.
Step-3 hydrating facilitates colloidal water movement within the leather to resurface and redistributes the migrating tanning agent, dyestuff, and fat liquor back to place.
Step-4 diminishing fat liquor is replenished for suppleness and color or finishes is restored accordingly.
